Our main website is 6 years old this summer.
With the help of a thing called the wayback machine I've just been reminded of the range we offered in 2006, consisting simply of two categories, briefcases and travel bags.
Progress and development have been rapid.
We now offer ten ranges.
Travel bags for example has become two sections, cabin bags and larger luggage.
Briefcases additionally include ladies briefcases, computer cases, folders and folios.
Satchels and shoulder bags, Italian briefcases and travel bags have all arrived.
The superb Ruitertassen collection has its own page.
And there's great scope for the future!
Here's a story [ Yes he's off on one again! ]
One of our regular suppliers decided to impose RRPs on all their retailers in March this year.
This meant an item we were selling at £110 MUST BE SOLD FOR £135.
Why?
Because other sellers were really upset that our company was "under-pricing" !!
So we packed up that brand's stock and sent it back.
Only we decide what is good value for our customers.
Forty years in retailing teaches simple lessons.
Dreaming about big profit margins in a competitive market is....dreaming!
Literally days later two manufacturers approached us to see if we wanted to work with them.
Next week the "WESTAWAY" range will offer more top quality merchandise for our customers to review.
Our styles, our quality, and definitely at our prices.
Thank you to all our clients over these past years.
Every day over 30% of our webshops visitors are previous buyers, or returning viewers...and we won't disappoint you.
PS "Now we are six"...is a short poem by AA Milne...worth a look!
