Time for an Eggstravagant Easter?

10/03/2023

These seasonal events mean big business in retail. In 2022, Easter spending hit £1.3 billion in the UK, growing from £1.22 billion in 2020. Over 63% of Brits spent money on Easter gifts last year, a slight increase from 2021 (62%). Even in a cost of living crisis, consumer spending for Easter doesn’t look likely to slow down any time soon.

With 2021 recovering slightly from pre-pandemic levels, 2022 saw much more positivity among consumer spending. Despite being financially worse off last year, Brits chose to spend more, willing to sacrifice more of their disposable income to celebrate the occasion.

2022’s celebration was more family-oriented than pre-pandemic. As such, Easter saw a rise in social activities such as dining out with family restaurants and pubs being more popular than the previous year. Non-chocolate related gifting also increased massively.

Xpres has a wide range of sublimation gifts, from mugs to key rings and everything in between, to help you make the most of the Easter holiday.
