Business on Valentine's Day
Today is Valentine's DAY - a very important business-day in the US.
. Find out which businesses especially profit from Valentine's Day.
Valentine’s Day spending is expected to reach $18.6 billion this year.
On average, Americans are expected to spend $130.97 this holiday, up only
slightly from $126.03 last year, according to the National Retail Federation.
Even as consumer spending habits change, some products, such as greeting
cards and candy, remain Valentine Day staples. Other products, such as jewelry,
are less popular and depend on the spending habits of fewer consumers.
Companies that make the most on Valentine’s Day typically look to the holiday
as vital to their bottom lines.
Many businesses that depend on the holiday sell a product many consumers
buy every year. American Greetings Corp. is one of the nation’s largest
greeting card companies. It specializes in a product 54% of consumers are
expected to buy for their Valentines, according to NRF. The Hershey Company is
one of the biggest chocolate and sugar confectionary
products manufacturers More than half of all consumers will buy
candy for Valentine’s Day, spending a total of $1.66 billion.
Other companies that mark February 14 on their calendar sell high-priced
items to fewer consumers. Only 19.7% of consumers plan on buying jewelry from
companies such as Tiffany. But the total amount spent is estimated to be $4.4
billion, more than any other good or service for the holiday.
What people buy for Valentine’s Day, and how much they spend, can easily
change. Valentine’s Day consumers enjoying an evening out are expected to spend
an average of $77 this year. This is up from $66 in 2010, leading to an
increase in the total amount spent on restaurants from $3.3 billion in 2010 to
to $4 billion 2013. If this happens, high-end restaurant chain brands like
Bloomin’ Brands, which owns Outback Steackhouse and Bonefish Grill, will be the
beneficiaries.
24/7 Wall St. reviewed the largest publicly traded companies responsible
for the most widely-consumed products and services on Valentine’s Day. In some
cases, such as Hershey’s, 1-800-Flowers and American Greeting, a majority of
the company’s sales are in that product. In others, such as Limited, IAC and
Bloomin’ Brands, only part of their sales are in that business, but the company
owns the largest brand for the particular product. Bloomin’ Brands owns
Bonefish Grill, the largest upscale dining establishment in the country by
sales, according to Technomic. We relied on National Retail Federation, for the
product categories Americans are likely to buy on Valentine’s Day.
