“Our summer trading expectations are looking positive”

Blueprint Collections’ Lisa Shand on sell-through being buoyant, repeat orders and back to school opportunities.

As we start the long awaited switch into summer, LicensingSource.net asks a selection of licensees what their trading expectations are for the season, how sell-through is going in their sector, if stock levels are beginning to open up and what situation they would like to be in entering Q3.

Today: Lisa Shand, md, Blueprint Collections.

“Our summer trading expectations are looking positive – our collections are in broader distribution for back to school than they have been for a couple of years.

Sell-through is buoyant and we are seeing plenty of repeat orders being placed. Open to buy seems to be increasing for quarter two which has led to quite a few last minute back to school opportunities.

We are hoping for good sell-through over back to school, so the autumn/winter collections get off to a good start.”
