Marketing at its best
In recent years, the best Christmas advert seems to be the addition to 
tradition with consumer excitement rising as each of the high street giants releases their festive creation for the year. For 2023, M&S, TK Maxx, Asda, Waitrose, Argos and Very are among those already hitting the screens; with John Lewis dangling the carrot a little longer and promising the imminent release of its glossy production. This retailer has given a teaser which suggests that nostalgia will be at the fore as a youngster and his gran are seen shopping in a vintage-style market.
These star struck productions include favourite names such as Hannah Waddingham, Graham Norton, Michael Buble and Dawn French (to name just a few), making them more than just a hot topic. In fact, so serious is this annual competition, the Daily Mail has launched its own poll 'who has the best Christmas advert this year - great debate', click on the link to view all of the adverts and vote for your favourite.

Helping hand
Namaste-UK's founder, Sam Brummitt was inspired to help reduce the difficulties faced by producers following a life changing world trip taking in the Indian subcontinent in 1995.
Starting the company in 1997, around 100 producers have been helped to grow and develop, with many of these mutually beneficial working partnerships resulting in long-term trade relationships lasting over 20 years.
The people who make Namaste's products and the planet's resources used are crucial to the company ethos. Recycled resources are favoured, while natural materials are from carefully managed plantations or by-products from food production. (Pictured: One of Namaste's first partner producers).
