The weather is finally starting to cool off, pumpkin spice is in the air, and fall is right around the corner. September is here, which means harvest festival season is in full swing. This is a great time for vendors to get out and sell at as many harvest fairs and festivals as possible.
More flea markets opened during the month of August, and the turnouts have been nothing short of amazing. Shoppers are still taking advantage of the warm weather and going out to find a good bargain. Even though the season may be busy for vendors, there’s still some planning that needs to be done.
The holiday shopping season will show up faster than you think, and experts are saying consumers will start their holiday shopping earlier than last year due to the pandemic. Black Friday is only two months away, so it’s best to start planning for any discounts, sales, and products you’ll be offering right away.
American Merchandiser has a special feature on closeout and liquidation merchandise to help check some boxes off of your holiday planning list. We also have some valuable information regarding the retail supply chain and the effects the COVID-19 pandemic has on it as well as delayed shipping and increased shipping rates.
Happy prepping and happy selling!
