My Back Shed Too! Finalist for Business Excellence Award!
Announced today, My Back Shed Too has been declared a finalist for this year's Business Excellence Award for Retail by the Burlington Chamber of Commerce. The award celebrates excellence in business leadership, community contributions, entrepreneurship, environment, employee welfare, innovation and market growth. Other finalists in the Retail category are Mountain Equipment Co-op and West 49 Inc. The winner will be announced at the Chamber of Commerce Business Awards Gala on April 8th, 2010. Wish us luck!
Recently celebrating its 2nd anniversary, My Back Shed Too was reopened and transformed by Ondrea Crockett in January 2008. It has quickly become a shopping destination for visitors from Niagara Falls to London to Guelph to Toronto. Our pretty little shop has become known for its welcoming, serene environment, re-purposed shabby chic (french country) furniture, home decor, unique gifts and toys. Bursting at the seams, in July 2009 we expanded to Ohh!! on Brant Street where a beautiful boutique was born. Urban elegance is celebrated with fabulous handbags, jewellery, accessories and - our now famous - greeting card selection! Hidden at the back of Ohh!! is our busy paint shop where makeover magic is performed: our customers leave their own furniture in our expert hands for custom painting service, and always leave thrilled with the results.
This is a great honour! I'd like to thank my fantastic staff (Carmie Domet, Beth Wyatt, Donna Domet and Carl Moore) for their hard work, support, patience and dedication in building this fantastic business. It is a true joy to work with you! Also, Wendy Marlow for making this opportunity possible - and for her great marketing advice (check her out at http://www.artofmarketing.ca), and my fellow downtown Burlington merchants for investing and working tirelessly to make downtown Burlington a destination for residents and visitors.
Most important, thank-YOU! for choosing our shops and for spreading the word about us! | |
