selling transport and railway nostalgia into the home

Retail

We manufacture and directly sell transport and railway related items that are appropriate for the home. Currently we normally sell to men, or the mothers of autistic children (on the childs behalf) who want pieces of railway or transport in their home. The majority of our products are made out of the fabric that is used on bus, metro and train seats (known as moquette). We source this new and make; cushions, washbags, pencil cases, coasters, glasses cases and Ipad cases. The range will extend. We are also looking at supplying new/reconditioned railway luggage racks. We also have frames railway toilet signs such as "please do not flush the toilet in the station, old transport maps. We have been successfully trading for the last 2 years, but lockdown has seen demand grow and the addition of the types of products sold at the London Transport Museum added to engagement. When we sell in the flesh we mainly sell to women as the designs are beautiful and varied. Online we sell to men. So we really want to target women (or gay men, of whom we sell quite a lot to) who are looking for presents for the men in their life. We believe this will work as the target is looking for something that relates to their partners hobby, but is not dirty, covered in oil, or a book/video. To cleanly incorporate aesthetically pleasing aspects of the partners life in to the female domain of the home. The target market is the UK, so designs need to reflect UK heritage I have included some pictures of UK transport heritage When people see the fabrics, it reminds them of a time in their past. Maybe going to school. People forget about the fabrics, but when they see them it brings the memories flooding back, of this old stuff that isnt around anymore, its no longer number one in their lives, but it's a nice second hand memory (number 2). All transport items live under cover at night, these are often affectionately known as bus or loco sheds. Sheds also evoke a feeling of something that is out of place and can be escaped to. I am also happy for Shed number 2 to be abbreviated or changed e.g, shed No. 2

My product range can currently be viewed on ebay, but I want to go slightly more up market with a shopfiy site, selling on amazon and potentially a physical shop. The range of designs go from floral though to quite modern, but the top sellers are from between 1970-1990. https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/marcumayer/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=
