Prezzybox has Christmas covered as it launches 2020 gift guide
We don't mean to alarm you but we are less than 100 days away from Christmas (99 to be precise).
Have no fear, though. Online retailer Prezzybox has put together a Christmas Gift Guide for 2020 to show you some of its best festive presents. And it’s pretty damn awesome, if we say so ourselves.
We particularly like the look of the David Bowie Tea Towel, the Frida Kahlo Cushion and the Cat Hamper.
Localism and omnichannel trends
51% of global holiday shoppers plan to buy locally this year, as the coronavirus continues to loom large, according to new research from Rakuten Advertising.
The company surveyed 8,673 people across the UK, France, Germany, Brazil, Australia, Canada, China, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea and the US.
In the run up to Christmas this year, 43% of British consumers plan to predominately shop from domestic brands, with 55% of UK households increasing spend with local businesses since the start of the pandemic.
With social distancing restrictions still in place, 51% of Brits have indicated a desire to shop both online and in-store this holiday season, with 36% likely to opt for Click and Collect options.
Just 21% feel it is unlikely they will venture onto the high street for gift shopping this year, and 32% are willing to change when they shop in physical stores to ensure they stay safe and avoid large crowds.
