PROFILE |
 |
Department 56 is nothing like Studio 54. Instead, the company sells collectibles and giftware, primarily in the US. It is best known for its Snow Village and Heritage Village Series -- winter scenes complete with tiny, lit ceramic or porcelain houses and accessories. Other items include Snowbabies and Snowbunnies figurines, holiday and home decorative products, and tableware. It imports its products from about 190 manufacturers. (More than three-fourths of the merchandise is made in China.) Its customers are mainly independent gift retailers (about 90% of sales), department stores, and catalog firms. Department 56 also sells its products through corporate showrooms, two company stores, and trade shows.
