BURIEN, WA, November 02, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Poggi Bonsi of Burien and c'est La Vie of Edmonds are launching new stores at The Landing in Renton in Mid November, 2009 with a joint grand opening celebration scheduled for December 4. Both stores are #1 winners in King 5's "Best of the Northwest" contest 2009—c'est la Vie won for best gift store and Poggi Bonsi won for best housewares store. The two retailers—who share a common customer demographic, business philosophy and promotional savvy—will remain separate entities but will team up to plan advertising, promotions and in-store events. This creative partnership will provide their customers with a varied and unique destination shopping experience.
Poggi Bonsi specializes in kitchenware, Italian and French ceramics and linens, specialty foods, home decor and "Gifts with European Flavor." C'est La Vie is an intimate and sophisticated artisan boutique featuring contemporary jewelry, clothing and home furnishings. Each store will occupy approx 2,800 square feet with a connecting doorway so customers can stroll between the two with ease.
The Landing in Renton was chosen as the location to launch this new partnership because of its commitment to attracting boutique retailers to an under-served area of South Lake Washington.
