We received plenty of applications but we have now selected the winners of the Pitch Perfect Competition and are thrilled to announce Cloth Barn UK Ltd and Country Ramblings are the 2015 competition! We thought we would give you a little introduction to this years winners and what these local businesses will be bringing to the Christmas market....
The Cloth Barn UK LTD
This exciting, unique and new local business has only been trading since October 2014, sourcing and delivering bespoke handcrafted Christmas heirloom pieces to local markets. Thier primary partners are based in Northern Bavaria, the heart of the traditional region of German glass ornament manufacturing. All products are mouth-blown with the same technique used today as they were, created over 100 years ago fashioned with great attention to detail - by experienced glass blowers and talented painters. In a culture in which Christmas is at home and where everyone carries this special family celebration in their hearts. All products are finished with fine stirling silver and hand-crafted with loving care. This is the way glass ornaments of lasting value are created- and also how they receive their special brilliance. "Every one of our ornaments are made with love and passion and symbolises a wish that will hopefully come true!"
We have a great variety of customers, from the younger buyers seeking a seasonal family gift purchase to a more mature client purchasing an heirloom piece. "With such a wide and diverse portfolio of products, presenting bespoke glassware never seen before in Belfast, we as a local business feel placed in a prime position to offer a unique shopping experience to the widest cross-section of Christmas shopper."
We are TRUELY DELIGHTED to receive such an accolade as winners of the Pitch Perfect Competition 2015 for this year’s Christmas Continental Market at Belfast City Hall. We have carefully selected the very best authentic German hand made glass baubles and wind lanterns for the event and are excited that this is the first time they have been seen in Northern Ireland.
