Bearing current supply issues in mind, The Giftware Association has extended the closing date for the Gift of the Year awards by just over two weeks, with suppliers able to send their entries in up until December 15. The GA hopes that the extra time will help potential entrants who are waiting on products, samples or photography.
“This has been a very strange year indeed, but we are still not back to normal, so we have to adapt when we can,” states the GA’s ceo Sarah Ward. “Last year saw us doing a full digital competition due to various lockdowns, and this year has seen supply chain issues affect many of our entrants. We therefore want to give everyone the best chance to get their products in if they have been affected by the delays.”
The Gift of the Year’s timeline will now be as follows:
Competition Closes: 15 December 2021 (Enter Now)
Online judging commences: 16 December 2021
Shortlist announced: 4 January 2022
