Apricot Lane Allows Franchisees to be Flexible When Buying Store Merchandise


Posted October 15, 2018 by Callie_Jones

Franchisees of Apricot Lane have the freedom to choose which brands to partner with and what merchandise to buy. The company also helps franchisees get first run merchandise.

 
[UNITED STATES, 10/15/2018] – Apricot Lane allows its franchisees to select the merchandise and brand partners for their individual stores. We support franchisee buying decisions, rather than restricting or requiring the inclusion of specific products in any of its franchise stores.

Attracting Customers with Unique Local Flavor

Franchisees can bring in new vendors and act as local buyers for the whole company. The buying flexibility that Apricot Lane gives its franchisees allows them to tailor their merchandise according to their preferences and to the preferences of their customers.

Apricot Lane lets its franchisees enjoy the buying process and encourages them to build relationships with local vendors. We conduct a monthly system-wide conference call where franchisees share updates about newly discovered vendors, their experiences, and more.

Staying Ahead of the Local Competition

Apricot Lane helps its franchisees to stay on top of competition through a comprehensive Merchandise Plan. It assists franchisees in buying and maintaining the right mix of product categories while staying within budget.

Moreover, the company gives each franchisee access to our exclusive buyers in Los Angeles. We’ve worked for years to develop strong relationships with buyers and manufacturers in the Los Angeles Fashion District. These partnerships allow our franchisees to get the first pick of merchandise at the same time as large fashion chains, often well ahead of local boutique competitors.

Apricot Lane supports franchisees when it comes to building relationships with branded vendors, as well. To this end, we offer continuous training and hands-on buying support such as detailed sales reports and product analyses.

About Apricot Lane
