The beginning of the year starts with our shelves depleted,
and trade quiet particularly in comparison to the crazy Christmas rush. You
will see us out with paint brushes, plenty of soap, water and elbow
grease. Every item is checked and both
the shop and stock room tidied, the shelves are replenished and brought back to
standard. Window displays are redone to
reflect the time of year.
So far this month we have introduced new card machines with
a contactless option, security cameras and will soon be moving the upstairs
cash desk to nearer the stairs in front of the window, which we hope will ease
the bottleneck near the chocolate fridge?
The online shop has been increased to include many of
Hunters own label products – preserves, pate etc.
Valentine and Mothers day chocolates and gifts arrive in
late January, followed by Easter goodies in February.
Suppliers visit with new ranges and ideas for the summer.
Christine is working on new products for Hunters own label, where quality,
taste and value for money are of upmost importance. New projects also include
working with a local nutritionist to come up with healthy recipes using the
delicious food found in the store.
March hopefully sees the arrival of spring and a return of more
visitors to Helmsley.
