As early reactions to the brand indicated, Santoro's Gorjuss™ totally captivated the hearts of licensees, retailers, visitors and exhibitors at the recent Brand Licensing show, with "it's Gorjuss!" quickly becoming the catch phrase of the two day event. Interest stemmed from the UK and spilled overseas (as far reaching as Mexico and Hong Kong), and negotiations are already underway within the paper-craft, gift, arts and crafts, sentiments, publishing, bedroom décor, wall art and apparel categories, to name but a few.

The rosy cheeked Candyblush™ characters also had a fantastic time at the show. Watch this space for new partner announcements in the apparel and arts and crafts categories shortly.

Santoro’s artfully mismatched Cotton Zoo™ brand, featuring a carefully stitched collection of patchwork pals, is currently grabbing the lion's share of attention from UK retailers and licensees. With negotions underway across a variety of categories including newborn and nursery gifts, bedroom décor, partywear, balloons and apparel, and with licensed products currently in development, things are really moo-ving forward with this lovable brand.

Also recently launched by Santoro Graphics, is a beautiful boutique range of appliquéd Cotton Zoo™ products, including bags and brooches, purses, mirrors and cushions. This nostalgic collection can be found in many independent retailers throughout the UK. Visit www.cottonzoo.co.uk to find out more.

The Drop720™ gang can be found hanging out in Boots stores across the UK this autumn / winter. They’ll be practicing some slick moves on the shelves, flying over pencil cases, looking laid-back on notebooks and riding rings around water bottles.
