 Although Christmas time is our specialty, the whole year
is a hive of activity preparing for our three month busy Christmas
season when our temporary stores open to the public.
Prior to this time, our stock arrives, the "muscles" are flexed and
the despatch process begins. During this time we employ approximately 20 people
who assist with warehouse duties and the running of the stores.
Meet our team and experience the wonderful world of The Christmas Heirloom Company™.
Our close knit team comprises of the following, permanently employed staff members.

Wendy Whatford
Manager - Wendy resides in Hamilton but commutes between Hamilton and Auckland overseeing the successful running of the company. From day-to-day her role and appearance changes from the well-groomed executive meeting with clients, to the denim-clad person offloading containers and unpacking boxes. Wendy is certainly an approachable all-rounder. |
