Greeting Cards from Peartree Heybridge


NEW GIFTS!
Some exciting new lines will be available for delivery from February:

• Gift bags
• Melamine Chopping Boards with a handle
• A White Board with magnetic backing
• Paper Memo Blocks

We’ve also made changes to some of our existing Spring Chicken gifts and stationery lines:

• Spiral Notebooks and Note Card packs have been discontinued. However some stocks still remain and are available at half price whilst stocks last.We’ve also discontinued our Canvas Pictures, but these are still available direct from www.artko.uk
• Our Slant Pads have been re-designed to be more user-friendly by increasing the space available for making notes.
• We have three new Weekly Planners - one for ladies, one for men and a "His & Hers" format
• New designs have been added to our Melamine Coasters.
• Our China Mugs are available in fewer designs, but at a lower trade price including a box with every mug 

CARD PRICES HELD!
We’ve been able to hold our prices for our greeting cards to last year’s level and we’ve kept increases on our gift lines to a minimum in spite of the much publicised hike in world commodity prices. We’re confident our products continue to represent value for consumers as well as creating solid sales and profit opportunities for our retailer customers.

• In any event order from us by February 18, 2011 (for delivery anytime until the end of March) and we will invoice you at our 2010 prices. 

THANKS FOR YOUR LOYALTY!
We are delighted to announce an initiative designed to reward your ongoing loyalty to us and our brands, and to help you maximise your profits from our products. As an independent retailer, we invite you to participate in our Retrospective Bonus Scheme.

THE SPRING FAIR
Our past investment in UK trade fairs has been substantial. However, following a detailed analysis of this investment in recent years we have decided not to exhibit at this year’s Spring Fair.

Our sister company, Sandie Blue will be showing its beautiful cards, prints and stationery on its stand Y61 in Hall 3. Members of our Sales Team will be on this stand and will be glad to meet up with you there.


We appreciate that for some of our customers, our stands at the NEC were a source of valuable information about us and our products. However, our website at www.peartreeheybridge.co.uk and our Newsletters  are valuable alternative sources of info as are our Sales Office team of Louise, Lois and Sue.

• They can be contacted by phone on 01423 547007, by fax on 01423 547009 or by e-mail to sales@peartreeheybridge.co.uk. 

OUR SALES AGENTS ARE GLAD TO HELP
Our Sales Agents are also a very useful source of information and advice. They are happy to show you samples and to help you decide which of our products and display solutions are most appropriate for your shop.

AND FINALLY…                    
      …order by February 18, 2011 for delivery by the end of March and as well as being charged at pre increase 2010 prices you’ll also benefit from an extra 5% Happy New Year discount.

Last year presented challenges to all of us. Some of these challenges will no doubt continue during this year. However, the consuming public remains loyal to our brands and this gives us optimism about our prospects in 2011. Thank you for your business. We do hope we may continue to be of service to you.
