Famed Buffalo Niagara Retailer - Made in America Store - Hosts "Ground Breaking" Event for New World Class Destination

Elma, NY, September 17, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Join Mark Andol, Founder and CEO of the Made in America Store, at 3:00 pm Friday, September 18, 2015 as he writes a new chapter in Buffalo’s Renaissance, the company’s history and our country’s future.  Come witness the ground breaking for the new Made in America Store World Class Destination at 1000 W. Maple Court, Elma, New York.

Mark Andol reflected on the company’s growth over the last five years.  “When we opened our Elma store on April 3rd, 2010, we had no idea we’d become a tourism destination,” Andol began.  “But the buses started coming, and they have been a major catalyst for our growth to five brick and mortar stores, three e-commerce sites and more than 100 vendor shows -- including VFW Conventions, the Constitution Festival celebrated in Ohio last weekend and the Erie County Fair every August.”

Together, we are honoring our veterans, recognizing our proud manufacturing past and preparing for a future filled with promise for all Americans, while creating and saving American jobs."

The new flagship store is located right next to the Maple Road exit off the East Aurora Expressway (Route 400), and will feature a single level, while simultaneously tripling both the square footage and restroom capacity of the original location.

“We are positioning ourselves for bigger inventories, higher sales, greater job growth and prosperity in the pursuit of the American Dream,” Andol added. “Our new store is strategically designed with tourists in mind and to bring outside dollars into Buffalo Niagara. Local residents will enjoy the enhanced amenities as tourists “in their own backyard.”

“We thank our loyal customers, near and far, for making this day possible.  We invite the public to join us at our Fall Festival featuring Krolick’s Fish Fry, a Free Concert featuring three bands, and Vendor Marketplace just next door at 900 Maple Street in Elma, from 4 – 9 p.m. on Sept. 18.  Together, we are honoring our veterans, recognizing our proud manufacturing past and preparing for a future filled with promise for all Americans, while creating and saving American jobs,” Andol concluded.

Net proceeds of the event will be donated to Music 4 R Vets, an entertainment and music therapy project founded by Ricky Lee, who is headlining the free concert at the Fall Festival on Sept. 18, 2015.
