A lot has changed in the 20 years since DirectBuy of Boston South opened its doors. For starters, nobody had heard of e-mail or the Internet, the fax machine was being haled as the exciting breakthrough in office equipment and the Berlin Wall was still standing.
Rockland, MA (OPENPRESS) December 24, 2007 -- Since its inception two decades ago, DirectBuy of Boston South has become the leading members-only showroom and home design center offering merchandise at manufacturer-direct prices—showing consumers a brand new way to save on home improvement projects, furnishings and accessories.
"DirectBuy South's growth from those first few years has been unbelievable. We've experienced a double-digit growth of more than a 50 percent increase in membership sales and volume in merchandise," said John Massaria, owner of DirectBuy of Boston South. "Beyond the growth in the number of customers, we now have more than 700 manufacturers selling their products through DirectBuy so the value of a membership here has increased tenfold."
To celebrate 20 years in business, DirectBuy of Boston South has embarked on a year's worth of community activities to help non-profits and charitable organizations benefit from DirectBuy offerings. That's included assisting such esteemed organizations as Homes for Our Troops, Boston's Children's Hospital, the YMCA, local Boys & Girls Clubs and others.
"We may be a part of a big franchise, but we also consider ourselves part of the local business community and the South Shore community at large. One of the truly rewarding parts of enjoying the success we have had as business owners is to give back to the community that helped make us successful," said John Massaria.
