The Places We Return To
This book is what kickstarted the Suitcase company Awayβ¦
This wasnβt the original thought, however. Their inventory order was going to be delayed so they were going to miss the holiday shopping season for their launch.

Instead of chalking it up as a loss, they got creative.
They interviewed 40 different travel creators and put together πβπ ππππππ ππ π ππ‘π’ππ ππ, as a preorder perk / discount code for suitcase orders.
Away sold out of its first product run in a short few months.
Less than 3 years later they sold 500,000+ items which generated $125M+ in revenue.
Away reached a peak valuation of $1.4B

CPG / DTC Stuff
Consumer fragmentation continues to be a significant trend in the CPG industry. While the explosion of small brands has slowed down recently due to economic pressures, the underlying consumer preferences for "special, different, and authentic" products remain strong. This suggests that small CPG brands still have opportunities for growth if they can meet these consumer demands.
The rise of e-commerce and digital engagement has become crucial for CPG brands, including smaller ones. Many successful CPG companies, even those with small teams, are leveraging online platforms and direct-to-consumer models to reach customers and scale their operations efficiently.
Sustainability and health-consciousness continue to be important factors for consumers. Brands that focus on these aspects, such as offering sustainably sourced products or addressing specific health concerns, may find opportunities to differentiate themselves in the market.
E-commerce adoption for CPG products has accelerated due to the pandemic, with many consumers planning to continue using online ordering and click-and-collect services even after the pandemic.
