(PRESS RELEASE) As a result of the continuously evolving COVID-19 virus, recent reports from the World Health Organization (WHO), national and regional guidelines from public health officials and Ocuco’s concern for the health and safety of our customers and employees, the Innovations Lab management team took the tough decision to cancel the Innovations UGM 2020.

This follows the announcement from the Vision Council to postpone Vision Expo East and consolidate it with Vision Expo West later in the year. At this time, we, Ocuco, want to express our concern for everyone impacted by coronavirus.

Ocuco is exploring methods to deliver some of the content of the UGM via webinars and/ or pre-recorded videos. Further information will be provided as soon as the delivery methods and scheduling have been finalized.

We, Ocuco, would like to express our sincere gratitude to all our customers, partners and suppliers during this challenging time and look forward to the next Innovations UGM which will be held in spring 2021.

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.”
