Since 1989 Dozens of Fund Raising Distributors have depended upon us for their Holiday Shop needs and made tens of millions of dollars profit.   We used to be in the fund raising business (1959 to 1988) and know how important it is to provide your customers with the best possible program.  We know that a good Holiday Shop can help you secure new accounts and keep your own ones. 

With that in mind we developed the best Holiday Shop program in the nation
    1st for stocking distributors . . .
    then for those distributors who just wanted to represent a program . . .
    and most recently we added a program who are willing to do their own promotion & billing, greater profit than a representative and still return all unsold product . . .

    Introducing our . . .
