Environmentally friendly and non-toxic erasers are given to the public for free every year, and a total of 20 million pieces are given away.

A Fabulous Day at the Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey Fall Fest

We had a fun and fabulous day with Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey during their Fall Fest activities at Lake Rickabear held from Oct 22 to 23, 2022.

WOW! Beautiful Lake and colorful foliage scene with gorgeous reflections.

Girl Scouts are future leaders in leadership, management, merchandising, fashion, technology, finance, supply chain, arts, space, health system, and women business owners.

We love to see our young girl scouts developing their skills with all kinds of activities including this ART activity, leadership, and many others. This helps them to build self-esteem, self-confidence, courage, and leadership, and develop friendships in their lifetime.

“Creativity and Imagination can change the world.“ FLOMO/Nygala Corp. is very proud and honored to sponsor this Art activity with dual-tip markers, gel pens, chunky markers, sketchbooks, and poster board. Love Girl Scouting. Girl Scouting is in our DNA.

Meet the Product Department: Janet and Tina are the innovators, and bring new products to life

How does FLOMO fill its showroom, warehouse and retailers’ shelves and displays with more than 6,000 products?  By innovating and continuing to create and source new, contemporary items.

Janet and Tina are FLOMO’s Product Development experts, bringing a variety of consumer good experience to their creative roles.

“Product managers are the center of the development process when it comes to new products,” said Janet.  “We search, source, gather pricing and samples, and present product lines to our CEO for planning.  And then to customers for reviews.”

Janet and Tina recently worked on developing a substantial stationary line of journals and sketchbooks, and also a multi-phase production of arts and crafts supplies, which includes kids craft sets.

“It’s something new everyday, it is never the same,” noted Janet.  “We work with all departments within FLOMO, from Imports to Finance, as well as vendors and our support team in Shanghai.  We also provide sales presentations to support our reps in house and in the field, and sales tools to sell the goods.”

For FLOMO to remain a go-to brand for everything you need to celebrate, stationery, education, holiday, arts & crafts, gifts, fitness products and more, the product department has to anticipate trends and always be ready to create the next best thing.

“[The idea for] a new product may come from a customer request,” said Janet, who looks for inspiration everywhere.

Tina, who also works on extensive line of seasonal products, says creativity is a key factor the department’s success, as well as the importance of keeping up with trends.

Creativity is vital, yet there are very scientific skills needed in quickly developing solid products at attractive prices.  One needs to have a strong background in math, logistics and time-management.

And not too many jobs can see a concept from start to finish as much as the product developers.

“When I go into a store and I see FLOMO products,” said Janet, “that really gives me the most satisfaction.”

Expand your business without expanding your permanent expenses.

I know hundreds, thousands of business owners, and their operations look so different than what they were a year ago.

My business, FLOMO, has been recognized for decades as a leading product developer and major national brand of gift bags, party supplies, gifts/novelties, arts and crafts supplies, school supplies and educational products, and holiday seasonal merchandise.  That hasn’t changed.  However, we now offer global sourcing as a service – we don’t keep our great relationships to ourselves.

For example, we have a sizeable e-commerce customer who continually asks us to source items for them, ranging from gift bags and holiday decorations, to kitchen, home and hardware items, like aprons, toilet plungers, zip ties and more.  FLOMO’s efficient service, competitive pricing and product development/designs makes our customer’s job much easier, so they save precious time and money using our product managers, designers, and supply chain logistics.  We not only handle all the details, but we have even increased their top and bottom lines.  With our trusted relationships in manufacturing, FLOMO develops items at a faster pace and without additional expenses to expand their business.  FLOMO handles the sourcing, design, production and 3PL and e-commerce via our headquarters just outside New York City.

Shortly after quarantine began, a large retail chain came to us, wanting to rapidly expand offerings for arts and crafts supplies, given the demand.  We listened to their needs and comparison shopped within our existing manufacturing relationships to source an expanded line of contemporary creative art supplies.  We also private labeled and customized our existing FLOMO offerings, which allowed for quick turn-around of market-proven products.  The chain was able to substantially increase sales since we quickly provided products and at lower costs/better profit margins.

Our regularly audited and reputably manufacturing network gives us access to new revenue opportunities for retailers of all sizes.  We work around the clock with teams in New Jersey as well as Taiwan, China and throughout Southeast Asia, always putting effort to help customers transition products to manufacturers to lower their cost and increase their profit.  And our global sourcing and procurement team ships and delivers both domestically and internationally and can even support direct import.  Whether you’ve developed a new product and need resources for fulfillment or are an established brand expanding your product line, we have a solution for you.

Innovation comes from listening to our customers’ pain points and responding to them with immediate and profitable solutions.   Take a look at our wide variety of products from paper and plastic goods, PPE, personal care products, housewares, arts and crafts, educational and new FLOFit fitness line.  We can take your ideas and present a concept, plan, proposal, planogram, product development, sourcing, pricing strategy to purchasing, purchase order follow up, manufacturing support, assembly, inspection and logistics…a full support team.  Our customers love that the FLOMO team takes initiative and suggests what they are missing, what market trends are hot, and what they should consider adding in their retail stores or e-commerce.  We’re here to listen and help businesses expand without taking on weighty expenses.

Cuando tus fuentes de ingresos probadas y reales están paralizadas, aprovecha tus otros talentos y oportunidades.

Si la palabra de moda del año es "pivotar", mi equipo y yo en FLOMO somos maestros de las piruetas.

FLOMO es conocido por "todo lo que necesitas para celebrar", con más de 6000 coloridos productos para fiestas, papelería, vacaciones y aulas. Cuando el COVID-19 paralizó nuestras operaciones comerciales hace casi un año, supe que teníamos que abandonar las áreas que habían sido fuentes de ingresos probadas durante años. Estoy muy orgullosa del equipo de FLOMO por haber cambiado con maestría y haber abierto nuevas vías para nuestro negocio.

Para satisfacer la demanda de artículos para el hogar, nuestros desarrolladores de productos estadounidenses diseñaron rápidamente nuevas líneas de productos de fitness(FLOFit), prevención de COVID-19 y artesanía, y comenzaron a desarrollar también productos para otras empresas.

Con todos los productos de FLOMO producidos en nuestra red de fábricas auditadas regularmente en China, Taiwán, el sudeste asiático, así como en Alemania, Italia y Polonia, lanzamos rápidamente servicios de abastecimiento global, poniendo nuestros 60 años de experiencia en la fabricación y 25 años de distribución en los EE.UU. al servicio de otras empresas que necesitan redes para reducir los costes para dar vida a nuevos productos. Nuestra experiencia en producción nos permite establecer sólidas relaciones con quienes se abastecen de Bolsas De Regalo, productos de temporada y para fiestas, suministros de oficina y equipos de protección personal (EPP) y productos de cuidado personal, artículos para el hogar y la cocina, ferretería y mucho más. Ahora ofrecemos estas oportunidades de aprovisionamiento -ya examinadas y creíbles debido a nuestras largas relaciones- a terceros. 

Aprovechando nuestro espacio de almacén de 100.000 pies cuadrados a 20 minutos de Nueva York, ahora ofrecemos asociaciones para la gestión de la cadena de suministro y 3PL, ayudando a las empresas con opciones eficientes y rentables para el cumplimiento del comercio electrónico dentro de nuestras instalaciones de calidad.

FLOMO también comenzó a ofrecer nuestros propios productos como regalos/promociones impresos personalizados para la marca de la empresa. La impresión de los logotipos de las empresas en nuestra línea de fitness FLOFit, Bolsas De Regalo y artículos de fiesta, productos de temporada y de oficina nos da la oportunidad de ofrecer precios competitivos al por mayor. 

Para FLOMO, la pandemia nos ha obligado a expandirnos más allá de nuestras especialidades habituales y a centrarnos en cómo podemos ayudar a los clientes potenciales a resolver sus puntos débiles, de la forma más rentable. Y seguiremos innovando y haciendo piruetas mientras los clientes necesiten resolver sus problemas.

La CEO/Presidenta Wendy Shen dio una visión general de la empresa y compartió su historia. A continuación, los participantes se trasladaron a las salas de descanso en relación con los productos para equipos de protección personal (EPP), productos de oficina/escuela y educativos, vacaciones y celebraciones, y logística de terceros, a cargo de los miembros del equipo de FLOMO. Gracias a los miembros del equipo de WEConnect Internacional Yeshua Russell y Chaelin Jung por hacer posible esta oportunidad para los EPM.
