My 2018 highlights: Bethan Garton

The Point.1888’s retail and brand director on what she’s looking forward to this year.

As we near the start of the third month of 2018, the licensing industry has certainly enjoyed a buoyant start to the year.

But what else will the upcoming months hold?

We asked some industry faces to share their highlights for 2018, on both a professional and personal level – from new movie launches and tackling fresh business sectors, to cycling and running challenges and even taking up golf.

Today: Bethan Garton, retail and brand director, The Point.1888

“Having joined The Point.1888 in October last year, my number one 2018 highlight will be working with the new expanded team. The Point has gone from strength to strength since it formed and I am over the moon to be part of it.

Another highlight is working on such a great range of brands from the phenomenal L.O.L and Little Tikes to Tate and Corinthian.

On a personal level, my little boy will start school in 2018 – a major milestone for a little one and I can’t wait to see him in his cute little school uniform.”
