what our customer's have to say ....

the uplift in sales has been incredible...

We always thought we did well with our greeting cards, however since TPS have been involved the uplift in sales has been incredible. We initially did a trial on our existing fixtures, so we had a true like for like comparison. It’s hard to believe, but we saw an 83% uplift in our retail sales between 2020 and 2021 so it was an easy decision to let TPS install some new fixtures last year. Their choice of product is excellent, helped by the fact the space is shared between the participating publishers. All we do is keep the display tidy as TPS look after the rest, which allows us to concentrate on other areas of the business.

sales are excellent, margins have improved, stock levels have reduced significantly...

We started working with TPS in 2019 after we bought Newton-le-Willows. It was a great success and we decided to move our other four centres over to TPS in early 2020. Our business is so complex these days it’s great having a supplier that just looks after everything. Sales are excellent, margins have improved and stock levels have reduced significantly, all in all an excellent partnership.
