Any other occasion/holiday period throughout the year where companies are as busy? Apart from Black Friday obviously.

It depends where you're located.

The Christmas period Is the busiest time of year, however In my locality, Easter Is absolutely flat-out. It's a 4 day public holiday, which means due to the downtime of close of business, certain stores are backlogged with orders.

Are you located in the US? I'm from the UK.

No, not In the US.
