Independent Footwear Retailers wanted to join Best Sellers Panel on Footwear Today

Published: 07 December, 2011

We've starteda new page in Footwear Today this month (Jan). Called Best Sellers, we're setting up a panel of indepedent footwear retailers to find out about their star performers. We want to know your five best selling brands in each cateogory, each month, starting from December '11. In return we will feature you and your shop in our Retailer Of The Month page. We need to know your five best sellers overall, for Men Women and Children. Also, for Men's Comfort/Casuals, Men's Formal, Ladies Comfort/Casuals, Ladies: Fashion/Contemporary footwear, Ladies Formal, Ladies Boots. For Children, Pre-Walkers, Walkers and School Shoes. Contact Cheryl Taylor, editor, cheryltayloreditor@googlemail.com, Tel. 01622 862962.

We would also like to know, if possible, whether your business was up on the same month last year, at the same level, or down, expressed in percentages (we will not be naming anyone here, we're just looking to identify a general trend). If you would like to contribute a comment for publication about anything you have done to improve your business, any tips or suggestions for retailers, or remarks about the market/trade or brands, that would be useful. However, it's not essential, just your Best Sellers list would be much appreciated.

I'm now calling for your December Best Sellers for the February edition, which I need as soon as possible; January Best Sellers (for the February edition) at the end of the first week of February - and so on.

Just send me an email to cheryltayloreditor@googlemail.com or ctaylor@datateam.co.uk and I'll answer any queries.

I look forward to hearing from you soon,

Kind regards,

Cheryl

'FITTING' NEWS' - Summer 2012 - Another Warm Welcome from the President – Jan Parry
In my last column I was hoping for a hot – or even warm summer – not much luck so far I am sad to say, and as the last edition was just prior to MODA, I was also hoping to meet more of our members – fortunately I had better luck on that score! Thank you so much for coming up to say ‘hello’ to my husband Francis and I, it was lovely to meet you and chat about trade. We have since had our AGM and I embark on my second year in office – where does the time go? The Minutes of the meeting are available from our Secretary, so if you want to know how the SSF has performed over the past year, do request a copy. My address at the meeting was as follows:
Padders For Kids
Padders, with nearly 100 years’ experience of quality shoemaking, has extended its family to include Padders for kids at its factory outlet shop in Kettering. The shop has a relaxed atmosphere and is run by experienced and friendly staff under the management of Charlotte Lyddon.
