Joe’s Promo Picks: Entertaining Essentials
Kitchen accessories and games are must-haves for gatherings, which are gaining in momentum after pandemic distancing.
Nearly three years after the beginning of the COVID pandemic, home entertaining is back. According to the International Housewares Association, 82% of consumers plan to welcome guests to their residences at the same or at an increased frequency in 2023 when compared to last year, and 35% say they’ll be entertaining much more often in the coming months. That’s an opportunity to use the products featured here, like charcuterie board markers and a pickleball set for impromptu games.
