Open Day 2010 - the great british weather didn't dampen our spirits!

We held our annual Open Day on 20th March 2010, it was a great day with many old and new customers checking out our new stock and picking up great bargains.

The Weather

The Open Day started at 8.30am to atrocious weather... wall to wall wind and rain! Our first customers came through the door as soon as we opened to grab the early bargains. We had a steady flow of people during the morning with Paint and Maintenance goods being our biggest sellers. Numbers dropped off over lunch and then picked up again in the afternoon after the weather improved a bit.

New Products

We have new clothing ranges from Henri Lloyd and Gill which went down a storm especially at the prices we were offering on the day. Everybody enjoyed the free wine, coffee and nibbles and some of the music choices from our resident 'dj' had some customers dancing and and others plugging their ears! It was great to see some of our regular customers and we thank them for their continued support.

Customer Feedback

We were keen to get feedback from our customers who were encouraged to give us their views and not 'pull any punches'. We are committed to bring our products and service up to being the 'Premier Yacht Chandlery Store in the North West' so we are always looking for customer feedback to improve our service.
