Jewelers urged to target higher wage shoppers
Albany retailers were advised to shift focus to higher wage brackets as jewelers seek the growing middle aged spender. Eastern salesman Maury Ash told the New York State Retail Jewelers Association that households earning $7,500+ annually, mainly ages 45 to 54, drive sales, while overall middle class demand lags. He urged moderation of political distractions and noted the era’s shift in consumer priorities.
