- Expansion of product availability to more Costco stores nationwide
- Successful product launch last year with high demand and sell-outs
- Exclusive partnership with Costco, a major retailer
- Addition of digital experience feature to enhance customer engagement
- None.
BARK's relaunch of its Season's Sweetings Advent Calendar exclusively at Costco demonstrates a strategic move to capitalize on last year's success. The expansion to more Costco stores indicates strong demand and potential for increased sales volume. However, the exclusive distribution through Costco limits BARK's market reach. The product's success hinges on Costco's customer base, which could be both a strength and a limitation. The digital experience feature adds a modern touch, potentially enhancing customer engagement. While this product launch is positive for brand visibility, its impact on BARK's overall financial performance may be due to its seasonal nature and single-retailer exclusivity.
The relaunch of BARK's advent calendar doesn't provide specific financial projections, making it difficult to quantify its impact on the company's bottom line. However, the expansion to more Costco stores suggests potential for increased revenue compared to last year. The exclusive deal with Costco could lead to improved margins through bulk sales and reduced distribution costs. Investors should note that while seasonal products can boost short-term sales, they may not significantly affect long-term financial health. BARK's
BARK's advent calendar taps into the growing trend of pet humanization, where owners treat pets as family members. This product cleverly combines the human tradition of advent calendars with pet-specific items, appealing to dog owners who want to include their pets in holiday festivities. The mix of toys and treats caters to both play and reward, enhancing its value proposition. The digital experience adds a modern, shareable element, potentially increasing brand visibility through social media. However, the product's success largely depends on Costco's customer demographic, which may not fully represent the broader pet owner market. While innovative, this product alone is unlikely to significantly alter BARK's competitive position in the $123.6 billion U.S. pet industry. It does, however, showcase BARK's ability to create unique, seasonally relevant offerings that could drive customer loyalty and repeat purchases.

Last year, BARK’s Season’s Sweetings Advent Calendar debuted online and in select Costco stores and experienced a season of constant restocks and sell-outs. This year, to ensure even more dogs can join in the tradition of counting down to Christmas with their families, the advent calendar is launching in more Costco stores across the country.
“When the Season’s Sweetings Advent Calendar first launched at Costco, it was their loyal shoppers and engaged social media community that helped drive buzz and excitement around this new holiday offering,” said Michael Black Chief Revenue Office and General Manager, Consumables at BARK. “We heard about consistent sell-outs from our customers who said shelves couldn’t be restocked fast enough! We are bringing back this one-of-a-kind advent calendar this holiday season for more dogs and dog parents to get in on the fun.”
Throughout the month of December, the Season’s Sweetings Advent Calendar offers 24 surprises including dog treats in the shape of a Christmas tree, holiday wreath, gingerbread man, star and candy cane and BARK original dog toys, from the Mocha Mutt Latte to the O Christmas Treat and more, created by BARK’s in-house design team. Dog parents can also unlock a shareable immersive digital experience that inserts their pup into five festive holiday filters by scanning the QR on the back of the calendar and uploading their favorite photo.
BARK’s Season’s Sweetings Advent Calendar is a Costco exclusive in stores and on costco.com. Visit bark.co for additional holiday offerings.
