Upscale food shop Partridges reports similar seasonal patterns. Andrew Robayo, assistant manager of the Sloane Square Partridges, notes a trend of customers photographing the shop’s Thanksgiving display. As well as Thanksgiving products, he says, “Breakfast items, such as the cereals and pancake mixes (Aunt Jemima and Bisquick), sell well in our store, which is probably due to family popularity.” The shop is also responsive to customer requests, such as for Swedish Fish and Red Vines.
