From the PUBLISHER Here’s To A Prosperous New Year OVER the last 41-years that I have published this magazine, there were probably about half a dozen times that I started out the January issue with “Good Riddance to Last Year!” I have to recycle that sentiment for 2021 and hope I won’t have to use it again! RETAILERS had a tough run for the last couple of years, albeit 2021 was considerably improved over its predecessor. With the pandemic, that we are hoping will be reclassified an endemic soon, many of our businesses ran on fumes. We’ve lost many retailers and wholesalers who will be missed. Those who toughed it out have figured out ways to make their operations run lean and mean. THE best news in our market is that there are so many new businesses opening up. Many displaced workers are starting their own merchandise businesses. Some are online, others in their local neighborhoods. I personally see this by the uptick in mentoring requests I am getting from my local Score SBA that I volunteer with. We also see that there were more new store openings than closings which is a great indicator that we are getting back on track. OWNING and operating an independent business is one of the things that make this country great. While we’ve spent the last two years fighting archaic covid restrictions and recently find ourselves fighting to keep the “American Way” lifestyle, we have survived. The future is looking bright and >> ON-LINE SOURCING according to all forecasts we should see a greatly improved 2022. WITH the new year should come a new look at your business. It is time to restock your shelves and website offerings with new and exciting products. Reach out to make connections with new suppliers. The trade shows are restarting and there is no better place to rekindle the enthusiasm for your business. MANY wholesalers are also changing over their lines and that is a great time to get some great deals on merchandise. Just buy smart. Sometimes a closeout means that demand is gone. Other times it only means that the wholesaler needs to liquidate to raise funds or if they have overstock. Take advantage of the markets and buy smart for your business. TIME to dust off your unsold goods and mark them down to clear them out. You can also donate merchandise to charity and take a full deduction. Keep this mantra in mind, “if it didn’t sell last year, it probably won’t sell this year.” Turn your old goods into funds to buy new goods. WE’RE proud to be media sponsors for almost three dozen trade shows for 2022 and will be circulating our magazines freely and promoting our wholesalers. Please patronize our advertisers who are some of the best in the business. And be sure to come by our trade show booths to say hello and pick up the latest issue. ONWARD and upward. Let’s make 2022 our best year ever. Happy New Year!
