The reductions in carriage paid charges should help ease the pressure on indies during a challenging year.

DKL Marketing has reduced its carriage paid charge from £300 to £200 for UK mainland, while for ROI and the Scottish Islands it has been reduced from £350 to £300.

The reduction has been applied with immediate effect across all the ranges DKL distributes, including Hama Beads, Plus-Plus, Playmais, Breyer, Scentco, Escabbo and Bloco.

David Allan, sales and marketing director, said: “To support independent retailers through this challenging year, we decided to help our customers by reducing pressure on their cashflow. Our customers can order across all our quality ranges, trial new lines, and be part of our high-profile TV and marketing campaigns”
