Grammatically incorrect sentence?

"The requirements are as below: 1.To create a design that could be used on a kids greetings range covering a variety of products such as; Greetings cards, gift bags, gift wrap and stationery..."

What in the world grammar is that?
Sounds to me that there's a period being omitted between "greetings" and "range".

I hope I'm not wrong because it'd rather be completely incomprehensible to me.

It should be " kids' greetings range" (and the semicolon and capital letter for "Greetings" are wrong). Otherwise it is OK. "kids' greetings range" is a noun phrase meaning a range of "greetings" items designed for kids.
