    New shop!

    Hey guys and gals,

    I had to share this with someone. We're going to be moving to a new shop! We just signed a lease on a 6000 square foot building that's about 10 minutes down the road from our current location (the corner of Rt. 724 and Bridge St in Spring City PA, across from the super Wawa). The sales floor will be roughly twice the current size (about 1500 square feet). There will be a PROPER fitting room (not our oversized restroom). We'll have about 10 X our current workspace (we're literally on top of each other at times currently). We'll also have WAREHOUSE space AND OUR OWN PARKING LOT!

    WOO HOO!!! Moving from a 2200 sq foot building to a 6000 sq foot building is going to give us TONS of room to grow and to BREATHE!

    We have some 'fit outs' to worry about in the next month or two, so the actual move won't happen until the beginning of Oct, but we're VERY happy to be moving.

    Congratulations! Sounds like a real improvement in quality of life. The build-out and move will be over before you know it, then it's all gravy from there! Good luck with it all!

I look forward to hearing more good things from yall! Keep on kiltin'!!!

    Congrats! I'll have to take a trip down there when you are moved in, you know, just to check out the place. Not that I'm going to order a semi-trad for Christmas or anything ....

    That you have a need for more space is surely indicitive of the great success of USA Kilts. My warmest congratulations to Kelly and you for building this fine business with all your hard work and talent. Maybe I'll get to visit you someday.

    Take care,
    Ham.
