Please Sir, May I Have Some More?

Monday, November 30th, 2009

Who would have thought that the uttering of these words from the mouth of Oliver Twist would have carried through the decades…..

But they have, and this time people are asking for more of our GumDrops Urban Rain Coats……yes the production that we just launched was supposed to last us 5 months (end of our season) unfortunately it only lasted 1 1/2!!!! who would have thunk!!!!

After months of planning, estimating and calculating, we came up with a production number that made sense….past figures, lost sales, anticipated sell through…..gave us the quantity figure we took to our local manufacturer Kloth.

However in the words of Oliver, you want more!!!…….at this point we will not have enough lead time or resources to have any more completed by Christmas……and as a small business, financing and capital are like embedded wisdom teeth…stubborn, and hard to obtain!!! so we are planning on running a line pre-olympics (if all the stars align)…..we will keep you posted on our progress…….

In the meantime, if you have tried on or purchased one of the Urban Rain Coats…please feel free to provide feedback so that we can make them bigger and better next time!!!

Until then…..let the urban professional in you, out!!!! with our Liz Trench Line…..take you from mommy, to meetings, to a night out…..or to meet prince Charles!!!!AES  CHARLES IN VANC#501C44
