Win! Fair trade fashion accessories from Earth Squared worth a total of £600 RRP Earth Squared is enjoying continued demand for its fabulous fair trade fashion accessories and to celebrate rising sales the company is offering three lucky Gift Focus readers a chance to share in the success story. Things have changed in a big way for ethical fashion accessories producer Earth Squared since its initial conception nine years ago - and the outlook for continued growth is looking brighter than ever. Earth Squared designs all its products in-house, working with fair trade accredited partners in Vietnam to bring them to fruition. The leap from retailer to wholesaler was made just three short years ago and since then the brand has grown significantly to over 450 accounts in the UK alone with new stockists on board this year from the USA, Europe and South Africa. Despite the difficult economic climate, the company reports that sales for spring 2011 have grown by 36% compared to last spring. With Home & Gift, Harrogate on the horizon, Earth Squared is looking forward to unveiling its brand new autumn/winter lines for 2011 at the show. The product range is expanding to include some fabulous new designs to appeal to a broader customer base. The stylish new quilted Charlie and Sarah collection indicates a new direction for Earth Squared and the fantastic, mix and match options with purses and scarves, and great detailing are expected to be a huge success. Also new for 2011 are the Ava and Lily collections in a winning selection of funky tweeds, classic cords and felts, all with scarves and purses to match. Classic designs like the Emily bag and Jersey Spot scarves return in a range of great new colours which, the company predicts, will continue to be strong and consistent best sellers. Earth Squared is proud to be a registered importer with the British Association of Fair Trade Shops (BAFTS). Given the current consumer-led trend towards a more ethical approach to fashion and with RRPs ranging from £4.99 to £34.99, Earth Squared believes it is in a prime position to provide fashionable, affordable and functional accessories to the market and anticipates continued growth into 2012. Earth Squared’s new ranges can be seen at Home & Gift, Harrogate in the Queens Suite, stand number 111 or visit the website www.fairtradewholesale.co.uk to find out more. g 80 giftfocus ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ HOW TO ENTER Earth Squared is offering three lucky retailers a selection of products worth up to £200 RRP each.
