Getting to know you.

     It seems that our name change has caught the attention of the Housewares Industry, not just the residents of Concord.  Bill McLoughlin, Editor of Gourmet Insider Magazine, dropped by today to experience Concord Cookware, take a few photos and talk shop with the owners and staff.  It didn't take long and Bill was helping customers and sharing new product ideas.  We offered him a job but he said he's pretty content in his current position.
     We don't blame him.  Gourmet Insider boasts the industry's most experienced editorial team and provides a go-to resource for small housewares retailers such as Concord Cookware.  Co-owner Robert Prestidge had the pleasure of meeting Bill and his team in Atlanta last year as part of their Retailer Roundtable discussion.  And today, Meghan Prestidge had the opportunity to walk Bill through the store she loves and nurtures as her mother, Louise Barber, did before her.
     It's nice to know the good people at Gourmet Insider never forget the small businesses while doing a strong job of covering some of the industry giants, as well.  Great to see you, Bill, and best to the good people you work with from all of us at Concord Cookware.
