(PRESS RELEASE) Ania Haie announces the opening of its US-based office. The new showroom will be located in one of the industry’s premier venues, Dallas Market Center, and will be home to all US and Canada sales, customer service and shipping operations.

“We are fast-tracking the opening of the showroom – scheduled for March 15, 2019 – to better serve all our new clients in North America. This will also coordinate with our targeted US marketing campaign that kicks off in March as well,” says Alisa Bunger, US director of sales.

Bunger continues, “We’ve experienced tremendous growth since we launched in early 2018, necessitating a US office location that can more quickly respond to the Ania Haie retailer portfolio. Ania Haie has been the number one brand seller for many of our retail partners which is fantastic news. Shop-in-shops and expanded showcase footprints are common conversations with those customers. Coordinating sales and distribution from the US will provide even better services that will help the retailers continue their success.”

“Ania Haie is a hot selling brand which is why we’re excited to be adding a shop-in-shop! They’ve been a great brand partner and our customers are loving how the designs keep up with fashion’s ever-changing trends,” says Sheila Olesky with A Silver Breeze in New York.

Norman Braverman, owner of Angel Haven in Connecticut, says, “We are one of the lucky shops to pick up Ania Haie in the US in its very early stages. Our customers of all ages are attracted to the collection. The turns are amazing. Reorders are steady and shipments arrive quickly. No doubt a winning collection. I’m tickled we’re in on the ground floor of a line that will only continue to grow.”

Retailers will be able to see Ania Haie on display weekdays at the new showroom, Dallas Market Center #7537, when it opens in March. Outside of Dallas, TX, Ania Haie will be exhibiting at the JCK Las Vegas show, Bridge section, Booth 19130. Brand inquiries can be directed to sales@aniahaie.com or 866.256.6151.

Looking for a Seamless Sale? Call Wilkerson

After almost 60 years in business, Breakiron Jewelers in Erie, Pennsylvania, was closing its doors. And the store’s owner, Linda Breakiron, was ready for it. She had run the store as its sole owner since the beginning of the millennium and was looking forward to a change. Of course, she called Wilkerson. Breakiron talked to other jewelers who had used Wilkerson and was satisfied with their response. “They always had positive feedback,” she recalls. With the sales, marketing and even additional inventory that Wilkerson provided, Breakiron insists she could never have accomplished her going-out-of-business sale without Wilkerson’s help. She’s now ready for the journey ahead, but looking back, she’d be sure to recommend Wilkerson. “They just made the whole process very seamless.”
