BERNINA of America, the premier manufacturer of sewing, embroidery and quilting machines, is pleased to honor Aurora Sewing Center, a BERNINA Dealer with stores in East Aurora and Williamsville, N.Y. with the prestigious 2016 BERNINA Presidential Award. The award recognizes the Dealer that best exemplifies the spirit of cooperation and education represented by the BERNINA brand. This includes the implementation of a successful integrated marketing program that supports the entire BERNINA product line, modern store merchandise concepting, a well-developed educational approach, dedication and years serving BERNINA customers, and above-average growth in dollar sales and BERNINA units sold. Aurora Sewing Center owner Barbara Perry died unexpectedly in February so her son Scott and daughter Alyssa McDonell received the 2016 BERNINA Presidential Award on her behalf at BERNINA University, recently held in Las Vegas, Nevada.
“BERNINA and sewing was our Mom’s life. She put her heart and soul into this business and our customers and I know she’s smiling right now,” said Scott Perry, Barbara Perry’s son and new owner of Aurora Sewing Center. “She always strived to be the best and provide top-of the-line products and services to our customers and the community. Thank you BERNINA!”
