Curated Product Strategies That Reflect Your Mission

Beyond Souvenirs: Merchandise That Tells a Story

Your product mix is the heartbeat of your retail space. Whether it’s a science museum, botanical garden, or cultural center, what you sell should reflect your story — and resonate with your visitors. We help you build a product assortment strategy that connects with your mission, your audience, and your bottom line.

Balanced, Thoughtful, Proven

We don’t believe in cookie-cutter assortments. Our consulting services are grounded in these principles:

- Mission-Driven: Products that align with your exhibits and educational goals.

- Category Balance: Apparel, souvenirs, toys, educational items, books, and seasonal exclusives — all planned with purpose.

- Audience Awareness: Kid-friendly, accessibility-conscious, adult-centric, or academic — we tailor for your core visitors.

- Margin-Focused: We know how to maximize markup without sacrificing quality or experience.

Reliable Sources. Fair Pricing. Ethical Partnerships.

Finding vendors isn’t the challenge. Finding the right vendors is. We maintain a growing network of ethical, museum-friendly suppliers — and we can help you:

- Identify new vendors aligned with your values

- Negotiate pricing, terms, and MOQs

- Explore local and sustainable sourcing

- Manage vendor onboarding and compliance

- Vet unique or custom product opportunities

Quick Wins That Make a Big Difference

🚩 Don’t overload the store with plush — even if it sells. Diversify to build ticket averages.

🚩 Avoid over-customization. Branded items should be balanced with universally appealing products.

🚩 If a vendor is difficult during onboarding, they’ll be worse during reorders. Trust your gut.

🚩 Review performance by category quarterly — if it's not turning, it's not earning.

🚩 Local vendors often deliver value perception, but vet reliability and consistency carefully.
