Thirty-One Gifts Announces Expansion into Alberta

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 27, 2015 /CNW/ -- Thirty-One Gifts will expand its sales territory into Alberta, Canada, beginning February 10. The company will offer its entire product line, including personalized home organization products and totes, and its new Jewell by Thirty-One line of premium faux leather purses, wallets and more.

Thirty-One is headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, and operates throughout the U.S. and has been operating in Ontario since September 2012. They have doubled the size of their sales field in Canada, which with the U.S., is more than 100,000 independent sales consultants.

"We were purposeful about keeping to a single Canadian province for a period of time in order to thoughtfully introduce our brand and values to a new country," said Thirty-One Founder, President and CEO Cindy Monroe. "Our business is about relationships and we've spent time focusing on building those relationships in Ontario, creating a strong foundation for growth and success as we expand into Alberta. Those relationships will help our new Thirty-One sales consultants in Alberta start their new business strong."

Thirty-One chose Alberta as its second province in which to operate because of Alberta's strong economy, and a great deal of Alberta residents interested in becoming Thirty-One Gifts independent sales consultants.

"We see a strong leadership base in Alberta," said Christina Snyder, vice president of new market development at Thirty-One. "We have a wait list of people who are interested in the Thirty-One opportunity there and are thrilled to be able to begin offering the opportunity and working in that market."

To introduce the Thirty-One opportunity, Snyder plans to hold two events in Calgary called Opportunity Nights for interested residents. The events will be February 10 and 11, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Delta Calgary South Hotel. Those interested in becoming Thirty-One consultants may enroll at the events or via the Thirty-One Canadian website at www.thirtyonegifts.ca by locating an existing consultant in Ontario to join her team.

"We're going to show them we truly are a relationship company and we care about women having a fulfilling, enjoyable way to earn extra income," said Snyder. 

Thirty-One will begin taking orders from Alberta residents and shipping to Alberta on February 10.
