Too Bad I Don’t Sell Swimwear
By businessbroad | August 24, 2008
A lot of gift stores in my area dabble in apparel items like t-shirts, lingerie, or swimwear, but I’ve always shied away from selling clothing. I’ve watched others struggle to get rid of odd sizes, deal with customers who get deodorant and makeup stains on their clothing, and generally lose a lot of money in clothing. That’s why I always left it up to the experts - actual clothing stores.
Of course, now that I find myself getting ready for the lake next weekend and looking for some sexy swimwear for the occasion, I’m having some mild regrets. It would be awfully nice to be able to shop for a bikini without that awful fluorescent dressing room lighting.
Have you ever sold apparel in your gift store? How did it go over?
