The Off-Price Specialist Show is adding Home, a new salon dedicated to helping apparel retailers discover home and gift and other new categories to add more excitement to their stores.
“There are other categories that apparel retailers are adding, including home, and you can’t find them anywhere,” Glen Gammons, JC Penney’s Corporate Merchandise Liquidation Director told This is Off Price magazine in an interview for its 4th quarter 2008 issue. “Off Price Show is well-represented in apparel, and we look forward to it becoming a one-stop shop for all off pricers.”
Gammons serves on the Off Price Show’s Retail Advisory Board, along with executives from other top retailers, including Beall’s, Big Lots, Forman Mills, Hamrick’s, and Variety Wholesalers. He and the rest of the board have been advocating for new category expansion to help retailers in this challenging economy.
“This will make it easier for everyone,” said Gammons. “Value is the No. 1 game in town, (especially since) business travel for retailers will be limited.”
Home will debut at the next Off Price Specialist Show – Aug. 28– Sept. 1 at the Sands Expo & Convention Center in Las Vegas.
