Earn millions from Christmas tree decoration service

(Baonghean.vn) - The Christmas market in Vinh City this year is quite gloomy, however the Christmas tree decoration service is hot because it is chosen by many people.

Before Christmas 2017, shops in Vinh city and districts sell many types of Christmas decorations.

However, unlike last year's Christmas season, this year's Christmas market seems to be "less enthusiastic". According to observations, the number of customers coming to buy items is quite low.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Huong, owner of a shop selling Christmas items at Vinh market, said: I started selling Christmas items from the beginning of December until now, the number of sellers is increasing, but the number of buyers is decreasing.

Ms. Le Thi Van, who sells decorative items on Nguyen Van Cu Street, shared: Nowadays, people buy and order a lot of things online, so traditional sellers like us have fewer and fewer customers.

Besides, people tend to reuse decorations from last year so the number of buyers this year has decreased even though Christmas is approaching.

The prices of Christmas items have not changed compared to previous years. People mainly buy familiar decorations such as small and medium-sized Christmas trees priced from 150,000 - 300,000 VND; decorative accessories priced from 15,000 - 30,000 VND/product; flashing lights from 15,000 - 30,000 VND/set, Santa Claus clothes for all ages also only range from 100,000 - 200,000 VND/set.

Large pine trees for restaurants and businesses cost from 1 million to 5 million VND. For trees with higher prices, we only accept pre-orders.

Christmas tree decoration service is chosen by many people, due to busy work or shops want to decorate professionally. Large trees, especially for businesses and large restaurants, need decorators, so this is one of the "hot" services during the Christmas season.

In stores, big shops, shopping malls are decorated with Christmas trees and have attractive gift packages for tourists.

According to Mr. Lam, a Christmas tree shop owner, during the Christmas season, we often hire skilled people, especially girls, to decorate Christmas trees for customers. The price of decorating a Christmas tree depends on the size and number of people working.

Usually ranges from 50,000 - 100,000 VND/tree. Those who decorate a lot, especially large trees, can earn 3 - 4 million during the Christmas season. However, for pine trees with a height of over 1.8m, we often decorate for free for customers. This service is increasingly chosen by many people, especially companies and restaurants.

Mr. Nguyen Thanh Nam, owner of a coffee shop in Truong Thi ward, said: In early December, I hired someone to decorate the Christmas tree in my shop to create a more sparkling and beautiful Christmas atmosphere to attract more customers to the shop. This service is very convenient, instead of having to spend time choosing goods and arranging them to look beautiful, now there are skilled people to help me decorate at a not too high price.
