    Past Event - Summary

    Onsite - Wednesday, May 12, 2010 (5pm-8pm)
    Eric and Blair Armstrong of Armstrong & Richardson

    Since 1934, Armstrong and Richardson has been fitting the Ottawa community with fine women's and men's shoes, boots and accessories. Offering the latest trends from the world's most trusted brand names, they take great pride in their wide selection of quality shoes, and their commitment to unmatched customer service.

    Visit any one of their six Ottawa shoe store locations to experience their selection and service for yourself. You'll see that there's a reason Armstrong & Richardson Ltd have been in business for over 75 years. If they don't have what you're looking for, they'll get it. Because they want you to put your best foot forward, with every step.

    On May 12, Eric and Blair Armstrong along with their family and staff hosted OXA members at their on-site event which was held at the Kanata store in the Signature Centre. Eric welcomed Members and gave a brief overview of Armstrong & Richardson's rich history and also introduced his family and staff who did a great job helping members find just the right pair of shoes for them during the evening.

    Eric also reminded members that due to their commitment to customer service they have been recognized with a Consumer's Choice Gold Award for twelve years and have been a member of the Better Business Bureau since 1943 and were on the 2007 Honor Roll. They've been a member of the Ottawa Executives' Association since 1936 and take pride in the good leads received and provided and the friendships they have built.

    As a token of thanks, Armstrong & Richardson offered a 15% discount to all of the attendees at their event.

    Once again we say "Thanks" to Manny Melios of Hemingway's Catering and his staff for providing a wonderful meal!
