In the industrialized world, Christmas means megabucks to the businesses that can create a fad or spot a trend. Filmed from a U.K. perspective, this program illustrates the annual scramble of key holiday-related industries—toys, video games, music CDs, luxury items, Christmas trees, and holiday foods—to catch the seasonal wave and ride it to high profits. But which products within each category will capture shoppers’ attention? The dynamics of—and glitches in—the global supply and demand cycle are thoroughly covered, factoring in the effects of brands, product licensing, advertising, research and development, and offshore manufacturing.
