High Five! DirectBuy of Ottawa owners celebrate five-year milestone.
Five years ago, when Frank Andree and Chantal Lapalme purchased the DirectBuy of Ottawa club, they had a mission: to show consumers in the greater Ottawa area a brand new way to save on home improvement projects, home furnishings and accessories.

    GLOUCESTER, ON, CANADA, August 08, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- After just a few short years, Andree and Lapalme led the Ottawa club to top honors for sales, service and merchandise volume.

In late 2008, Lise and Regis Girard joined the ownership team and continued the winning tradition, ranking number two in Merchandise Sales for 2009 among Canadian DirectBuys—including a top ranking for merchandise sales among Canadian clubs for the month of May. Additionally, Ottawa has ranked in the top 5 for all clubs for membership sales in each of the past 6 months.

"The growth we've experienced since we opened our doors five years ago is a little hard to fathom. Not only have we grown in terms of the number of our members, but also in the number of manufacturers who want to sell their products through DirectBuy," said Regis Girard, co-owner of DirectBuy of Ottawa. "In finishing first in merchandise sales for May, I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate our anniversary. Frankly, I'm even more excited about the next five years."

As the leading members-only home improvement and home furnishings club, DirectBuy of Ottawa offers direct insider pricing on products ranging from light fixtures to televisions to kitchen cabinets, all from more than 500 manufacturers and their authorized suppliers. DirectBuy also offers design services to its members, as well as a listing of local contractors who offer installation services to DirectBuy members, many times at a discounted rate.

"Our five years in business have not only given us the opportunity to help families create the home of their dreams, but to also establish ourselves as part of the local business community and as a contributor to local charities," said Girard. "We look forward to further cultivating those relationships with our customers and the community as we build toward even bigger and better things in the years to come."

DirectBuy of Ottawa has helped consumers enjoy enormous savings on home furnishings, home improvement items, entertainment and outdoor products, and accessories, by providing an avenue to purchase directly from the manufacturer. Conveniently located at 1392 Cyrville, Road in Gloucester, Ontario, DirectBuy offers consumers a comfortable, country-club setting, where they finally have the financial control of buying direct.
