In terms of our costs, I would say that nearly every part of our business has increased in cost over the past few years from shipping, packaging, our raw materials, vessels, oils, et cetera.
With that being said, we've had to absorb a lot of those increases.
We've become more strategic in our purchasing and inventory.
So we're very careful not to over-order.
We've also looked for ways to diversify our revenues.
So
Our candle making experiences have become an even bigger part of our business that help offset some of the rising costs on the retail side.
We're taking things day by day.
And especially for us as a candle business, the summertime is not our peak.
A lot of people prefer to be outside rather than inside doing activities.
So we're going out and doing more markets.
We're using those opportunities to grow our reach in ways that we may not previously.
be necessarily doing during other times of the year.
Business is pretty steady.
We've definitely been feeling the shifts in consumer spending over the past year.
And so I think that shows up in like a slight dip in overall sales.
But
We're kind of leaning into our existing partnerships and more community driven events.
We recently just opened a pop-up space in downtown Seattle.
FIFA will be in Seattle in a couple of weeks.
