Thank You all for your Help on checking in with Distro’s yesterday in and around the Phoenix area & seeking out anyone that needed help or may have wanted a personal visit. I went by to the appointment with Vape Vyper & talked with Jackie & worked with their Inventory to get a better understanding of the Distros needs. Jackie is awesome, and she loves Laura and our product line. The Distro looks great & is a full service warehouse that concentrates on Vape supplies & also has a full selection of “smoke shop” supplies.
They do not sell any tobacco products & very little glass.
I will send over an order later today.
The Inventory In Tempe & In Las Vegas were very similar, both were very Heavy with Christmas Fragrances & Winter fragrances but mostly out of stock on 24/24 candles and sprays . Each of these two Distros had a fairly large amount of inventory but it seems as though they may have been holding back from reordering everyday Most in Demand sellers because it looked like stock was on the shelf with the Christmas.
I’m sure part had to do with budgets too and being selective of what money is going into on inventory.
Because they are out of 24/24 they lose sales everyday & when a retailer try’s to stock there store they cannot get & may forget about 24/24 and a spiral has started that affects everyone. When you walk into the retail store they have a limited selection of our candles & sprays and not the most in demand fragrances.
In Both locations there was requests & needs by the retailers thru the distributors for displays. We need to work on this as I’m hearing this almost from all distributor’s.
Thank You all again for your work yesterday on seeking out opportunities in Tempe/Tucson and for working with the mission of creating the best possible experience for our Distributors to make available and resell our product and for them to have the best possible selection so that the retailers can have our product on the shelves for the consumers as they walk in for there everyday needs and wants.
Let’s Lite up Denver & surrounding area this week.
Best Always
