This week our main goal at ettitude was to find a suitable warehouse and office space. We are drawing near to our deadline to move and things have been getting a little stressful. However, on Friday, we have hit the warehouse jackpot. Myself, the owner, and her VP toured a great warehouse. There was a little hick up though, it was next to a coffin supplier. lol. It was very unexpected when they brought one out to their van because we all thought it was a furniture warehouse. Other than that though, the warehouse was perfect for our operations and room to add more employees in the future.
We were also lucky enough to pass 2 more warehouses in the same area that were for lease and one of the agents was in the area and let us do a walk through of our ideal location. It was brand new with finished concrete as well as great office and reception areas. They also utilized some green construction during building which was great to hear. We are hoping to hear from the landlord on Monday if they approved our offer so we can move in right away. It is a very exciting time for the business so we can receive larger shipments from our supplier as well as adding new product lines because we will be able to house them properly.
