‘The Repair Shop’ Announces New Licensees and Product Launches

“The Repair Shop” has announced a host of new licensees, product launches and retail successes this month, secured by its brand licensing agent, The Point.1888.

A range of 28 SKUs across health and beauty, stationery and gifting will be available for “The Repair Shop” fans to buy through a partnership with licensee, Sting in the Tail. These include hand repair wax and bath soak. The range is available at independent stores and garden centers across the U.K.

Another licensee secured by The Point.1888 is board games developer, Rachel Lowe, who is working on a new board game and puzzle to launch later this year.

A new licensee to the program, Cardology, has been chosen to create a range of “The Repair Shop” greeting cards.

“We are thrilled with the amazing licensees we have secured so far, and I personally love the mix of products that we are developing,” says Carrie Sharland, senior product development manager, The Point.1888. “We’re so proud to work with a brand that brings so much joy to the nation, and we look forward to working with our new partners on extending the reach of ‘The Repair Shop’ even further.”

“As a card publisher, just occasionally a standout property comes along that speaks directly to intergenerational connection,” says David Falkner, director, Cardology. “‘The Repair Shop’ adds further themes of consistency and belonging during times of change and the application of time, love and thought, both of which we know our customers respond strongly to when selecting Cardology products. It’s for these reasons we’re hugely excited about the range of ‘The Repair Shop’ lines we’re bringing to the market.”
