posted in Claire Burke |

The Claire Burke inventory situation seems to be slowly improving. Currently we are awaiting our first shipment from their new Canadian warehouse which seems to be taking forever to arrive!

These items are already enroute to us:
Apple Jack Warmer Refills, Reed Diffusers, Hand Soap, Tin Candles & Potpourri
Vitabath Gelee Gallons - all scents
Festive Simmer Oil Samplers
Original Tin Candles, Vapourri, Parfum, Luxury Candles, Votives
Sea Simmer Oil, Warmer Refills

We expect the above items to arrive by the end of this week. I asked about the status of a few other items which are out of stock:

Original Warmer Refills - expected to arrive at the Factory on Feb 1, 2008.
Apple Jack & Peel Simmering Oil - not expected to arrive until May 20, 2008.
Original Lampourri Oil - due at the warehouse on Feb 20, 2008.
Original Reed Diffusers - due to us within 2 weeks.
Christmas Memories & Oh Christmas Tree Warmer Refills - sometime in May or June 2008.

Please know that we are doing our best to keep you informed. We appreciate your patience!

    First of all, THANKS for keeping us updated on the Claire Burke situation. I cannot understand how such a respected name could suffer from such poor mismanagement. I feel like Claire Burke is on ‘life support’ and needs to be resuscitated. I hope that the new owners can do just that. While I certainly have patience with Freshbet, (after all, they ARE at the mercy of the owners of Claire Burke), I cannot say the same for the owners of Claire Burke. While it is too soon to know how the new owners will handle/improve things, I must say that I am ready to bail for good if they don’t get it together. I miss the days when Tsumura was the owner. Every February, new Spring merchandise arrived with it’s bright, cheery presence on what was often a gray, gloomy day in the Midwest. In September, Christmas goodies arrived with all of their sparkle and glitz, and it was always so exciting. So, it CAN be done. My allegiance to Claire Burke stems from memories made by my Great Grandmother, Grandmother, and my Mother. I suppose this is why I am so passionate and concerned with it’s survival and the respect I feel that it deserves. Here’s hoping…Regards, Lee Baynard
