SEACHANGE SAVOURIES CANADA...THE CANADIAN GIFT FOOD COMPANY

salt4265_570SeaChange Savouries is launching two NEW Canadian salts at the CGTA and Alberta Gift Shows. One is a pure Canadian Sea Salt, made from cold, clear Canadian sea water, and the other is a Maple Smoked Salt, smoked with Canadian maple wood.

“We are very excited to provide our retailers with Canadian themed products in the up and coming salt category,” said Anne Millerd, co-owner of SeaChange. “Retailers who visit SeaChange at the CGTA or Alberta Show can taste the salts, and drop off their business cards for a chance to win a free case of SeaChange Salts, retail value $144.00.”

SeaChange Canadian Sea Salt and Maple Smoked Salt will retail for $5.99.

The winner of the draw for SeaChange Retailers is Britannia Teas in St. John’s Newfoundland! Britannia Teas will receive a free case of SeaChange Maple Glazed Smoked Salmon with their next order. Congratulations to Kelly Jones, owner of Britannia Teas!

A big thank you to all the Retailers who entered the draw, and for your comments on our new web site. It was great to get your feedback. We were thrilled with the level of participation, and we are already planning another draw for the new year!

“We share our customers’ concern about the future of Canada’s fish stocks, and it matters to us that the products we carry are sustainable.” commented co-owner Anne Millerd. “We feel great about having this certification.”

After a two year sabbatical, SeaChange founding Partner John Millerd is back in the SeaChange saddle. John will be working in Sales, along with Anne Millerd, Director of Sales and Sales Associate Dawn Sawchuk.

“We are truly thrilled to have John back working with us once more,” comments Anne Millerd. “John knows our customers and their needs like no one else. In many cases, John established these customer relationships himself, in the late 80’s and early 90’s.”

John has rejoined the SeaChange Sales team effective October 1, 2009, and will be focusing his efforts in Western Canada.

After twelve years representing SeaChange Savouries Canada in Vancouver and BC’s lower mainland, Vancouver sales rep Tom Murphy will be retiring from SeaChange to focus full time in his own retail business.

“Tom Murphy has been with SeaChange for over a decade,” comments Anne Millerd, SeaChange Director of Sales. “He has made an invaluable contribution and we will miss him.”

SeaChange’s sincere thanks go out to Tom Murphy for his work over the past twelve years.
