Gift supplier Wild Things continues to invest in its growing UK sales network, welcoming additional experienced team members who bring industry-wide knowledge, a strong understanding of what drives success on the shop floor, as well as an appreciation of quality gifts.
Newest team member Sue Brayshaw covers the North East and Yorkshire. Having spent over 35 years in the gift industry, including roles as a national account manager and sales agent, Sue brings decades of experience alongside a practical, personable approach.
Known for her reliability and willingness to go the extra mile, whether that’s through supporting displays in-store or tailoring ranges to suit individual customers, Sue is focused on building strong brand presence in the right locations. Sue’s advice on showing up as a valued retail partner is: “Be prepared to get on your hands and knees with a duster, tidy up, and count stock.”
“Both Sue and Irene share a clear understanding of today’s retail landscape. Success lies in optimising product alongside presentation and maintaining genuine relationships”
Supporting customers across Scotland is Irene Grant. With more than 30 years in sales, Irene has built a reputation for reliability, consistency, and long-standing customer relationships. Working across a diverse mix of independent retailers and major garden centre groups, Irene is well versed in securing strong retail space and ensuring displays remain fresh, relevant and commercially effective. Her hands-on approach and commitment to customer service have made her a popular contact, from Banchory to Gourock, and from Thurso to Melrose.
Both Sue and Irene share a clear understanding of today’s retail landscape. Success lies in optimising product alongside presentation and maintaining genuine relationships. Their appointments reflect Wild Things’ continued commitment to supporting retailers not only with distinctive collections, but also with people who care about customers and products, and who add that extra sparkle in-store.
The Wild Things sales team is now nine strong, including Liz Corbin (head of sales), Kate Taplin (South West), Anita Powley (Midlands), Maria Valdez Cortez (Ireland), Suzanne Chapman (national accounts), and Will Kingham (South East).
Head office sales team support comes from Lisa Richardson, who has been at the company for eight years and is a familiar, friendly voice to customers.
