Back office Update:
As we prepare for the busy holiday season, the CAC Design Store will be receiving a lot of new product. We do not have a warehouse room like we did at our old location and we also did not incorporate a warehouse space in our design plans when we moved as we had originally outsourced our retail operations to a third party that did not need space. Due to this and now that we are running our store again in-house, we will be processing much of the shipments in the back office space. We will be ensuring a clear path to the library, but please watch your step and excuse the mess as we prepare for this important time of year for our retail business!
