Burns Night Signage

Burns Night - Retailing Best Practice

This retailing best practice document focuses on Hogmanay, the Scottish New Year, the name is thought to derive from the French language, meaning "Gala Day". It is a major event in Scotland and encompasses their new year celebrations. Auld Lang Syne is traditionally to celebrate the turning of the year, a poem/song written by Scotland's bard, Rabbie Burns.

In Scotland, celebrations are extensive, with this event the equivalent of the New Year's celebration. With a focus on Haggis, Steak Pies and Malt Whisky that are suitable for Hogmanay and similar to what we see for Burns Night, later in January.

For retailers in Scotland; Hogmanay remains vital as an event and there are several iterations of the offer that we have seen, focusing on local tastes alongside a core offer for the New Year's celebrations.

Our 3 separate reports cover the event in 2017, 2019 and 2020 as the year turns to 2021 also. Our report showcases the best examples of execution from the around the stores and categories for Hogmanay across Scotland.

Bespoke Reports

Whilst we have a wealth of reports from our store visits and seasonal event overviews, there's always more to say, and infinite ways to combine imagery. Perhaps you want to showcase a particular category, from a specific year, or a specific tier of products plus anything from a particular country... the number of combinations is endless.

We understand that requests come in all shapes and sizes. We think of our images as the raw material, and, once given a request or brief, we're able to use our imagery, combined with our insight, to craft something that will not only satisfy your immediate requirements, but will be something that you can treasure for many years to come (or at least until you get another request from a client or a stakeholder.)
