The Holiday season is coming closer and closer, but after the Christmas Home & Gift Power Pitching event our journalist attendees are all set for their gift ideas. After taking a look at the Home & Gift Christmas sector, our brands followed up with wonderful ideas for this year’s presents that will definitely stand out on anyone’s wishlist. This event gave the attendees a chance to get a head start on all the incredible gift options available this year, saving their time from the festive chaos of Christmas shopping.
A huge thank you to the brands that made this incredible event:
ARRAN Sense of Scotland
Ashleigh & Burwood
CEWE
Wayfair
We were also very grateful to have Yorkshire Handmade Pies as a partner for the Christmas Home & Gift event, who provided all our attendees with a selection of their best pies to enjoy during the presentations.
