This has led to robust sales at the various Terrys Fabrics outlets and on their websites, with customers placing orders online in order to get ready before Christmas. The increase in sales has been more than 15% and has been helped to a great extent by the company’s online presence.
Paul McGuiness from Terrys Fabrics admits the fact that though the autumn season has been conventionally very busy for them, even he is positively surprised about the growth in sales, especially when they were expecting sales to drop, given the tough economic conditions prevailing and restrictions in the credit off take.
He feels that customers want to really enjoy Christmas judiciously this time around, without being reckless in their spending and are thus more prudent with their purchases. In addition, the focus is more on soft home furnishings and props rather than big ticket items for the home.
The result is that items like curtains, pillows, table lamps and curtain props have registered a big increase in sales and have been the major selling items till now.

The company is also of the opinion that with more and more customers wishing to cut down on their energy bills, the sales of good quality insulating curtains are going up. These curtains help to retain heat and that means the heater need not be used very often.
