“We want to maximise the fantastic licences we have”

Dreamtex’s Anthony Duckworth on factoring challenges into annual forecasts, Q3/4 planning and completing more of its sustainability goals.

Now that we’re at the half time mark in 2022, LicensingSource.net asks a selection of licensees if the year is panning out as they anticipated in terms of opportunities and challenges, and what is the one thing they would like to achieve by the time we reach the all-important Q4 period.

Today: Anthony Duckworth, md, Dreamtex.

“We’ve found that the main challenges are still with shipping lead times and external delays from factories. We have factored these challenges into our annual forecast and prepared accordingly to avoid any surprises. Q3 & Q4 planning is well under way as orders are being placed well in time for stock to arrive for the busy sales period.

We want to maximise the fantastic licences we have and hit the retail deadlines for promotions already booked during this period.

We’re looking forward to making further progress with our new venture, Dreamtex Earth and completing more of our sustainability goals. We also have some exciting new launches which are currently behind the scenes, we can’t wait to release them into the market.”
