Because we have 218 stores in 33 countries ? 25 in the United States ? we have products made in the U.S. and Canada and throughout the world.
Opening stores is something we do very well and we are continuing to work with local organizations to not only handle those issues but also to help other area business to take advantage of our traffic.
We have everything for the home under one roof. We intend our stores to sell only our products. That contributes to our uniqueness.
In North America, we only plan on opening four to five stores a year, while other chains look to open that many in one metro area in a year.
