Just read a very nice article about a lady who is making wine bottle shaped cutting boards, and submitted them to Williams-Sonoma.  Apparently the President of Williams-Sonoma was flagged by an alert online and contacted her.  Now that is a fairy tale ending.  We have been trying to get our products into Williams-Sonoma for years, as well as into Bevmo, Sur La Table, Cost Plus World Market and Barnes and Noble.  We have a modest presence in Borders, for our calendars only at this time.  We used to have our gourmet and wine decks there as well, but due to distributiuon changes things have changed.
At any rate, it is a real pleasure to read about someone breaking through the daunting wall of corporate operations, especially when their product is well made and from the heart.

"Ghigo Press has come up with a brilliant idea and translated their idea
into informative and aesthetically pleasing reference cards and calendars.
I regularly refer to their Wine Cards Collection and anxiously await their
upcoming Jazz Cards Collection and 2011 Jazz Calendar."  Mike Nordskog,
Publisher of Wine and Jazz Magazine

We are happy to announce that we are a member of The Green Press Initiative!  While we have used recycled paper and environmentally friendly inks in the past, from now on all of our products will be 100% recycled, or when there is a coated paper we will have the highest percentage of recycled paper possible.  We salute their good work and will do our best to promote these practices whenever and whereever we can.

Best!
