Every year, local businesses share the responsibility of getting people into the Christmas spirit. This is partially to keep tradition alive and partially to ensure that Christmas continues to make up 19.2% of all industry sales. Investing in your own top-quality commercial Christmas decorations will ensure that your business becomes a Christmastime staple for years to come.

Zoic 328-Foot LED String Lights
Shop now at Amazon
From Amazon
String lights are a no-brainer when it comes to decorating your business for Christmas. These festive fairy lights instantly set the mood to “Yuletide joy” with their warm white glow.
This box comes with 328 feet of UL-certified lights, which totals to about 500 individual LEDs. They have eight modes, which can be cycled through from an inline control cluster.
The only downside to using string lights to decorate your business for the holidays is that it takes a lot of man-hours to properly mount them. If you have a larger building to cover, you may need more lights and/or the help of a professional Christmas light hanging company.
Of course, we won’t stop you from giving the ‘ol college try to the D.I.Y. approach.

New Bright Holiday Express Electric Train
Shop now at Amazon
From Amazon
In the ’50s and ’60s, a model train circling the Christmas tree was as much of a staple as a stocking over the fireplace. Though they don’t hold the same importance to the modern Christmas tradition, they are still a visually engaging decoration that touches on the spirit of Christmas.
