I am pleased to inform you that The Office of Economic Development and International Trade (OEDIT) of Miami-Dade County will be partnering with Spring Boutique Week Miami which will be held in Miami-Dade County April 17th-24th, 2011. Spring Boutique Week will also take place in Chicago, New York, Boston, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.
Premiering in October 2010, Boutique Week is a semi-annual event, bringing together America’s boutiques for a week of incredible sales and discounts. Boutique Week can help boost sales of individual boutique owners in Miami-Dade while offering customers unique products and in some cases affordable access to high-end couture. A variety of Miami’s local boutiques will celebrate Spring Boutique Week by offering a minimum of 25% off of at least half of the boutique’s merchandise to access code holders.
I would like to invite your organization to participate in this weeklong event that offers an opportunity to boost the local economy by helping individual retail businesses increase their sales as well as offering customers unique products at a reduced rate. Specifically, I’m requesting your assistance in getting the word out to our local boutique owners so that they can participate in the Spring Boutique Week Miami. Boutiques interested in participating in the program should contact Olga Vidisheva at 857-225-2637 or olga@boutiqueweek.net. There is a $250 fee for participating boutiques.
Consumers interested in signing up for a free access code and seeing a full list of participating boutiques should go to: http://www.boutiqueweek.net/
Thank you for playing an important role in the revitalization of our local economy by helping our small business owners succeed.
Sincerely,
J.A. Ojeda
Executive Director
