Busy Event Builds Buzz, Generates Orders for Ultimate Piece of Style for Serving and Entertaining

RALEIGH, N.C. -- The Raleigh Chamber of Commerce Business Showcase held recently at the Hilton North Raleigh/Midtown helped shine the spotlight on Slateplate (www.slateplate.com), the ultimate piece of style for serving and entertaining. The well-attended event saw a steady stream of interested business professionals visit the Slateplate exhibit where they were able to get a feel for the smooth, durable serving tray handcrafted from high-quality, natural slate right here in the U.S.

Giving You An Unfair Advantage

“We saw a lot of interest from a ton of realtors and other people, many of whom placed orders, and we got to know a lot of businesses we weren’t aware existed,” Danielle Prince, Slateplate operations and sales manager said.

Thanks to the Showcase, Prince pointed out that Slateplate is in the process of registering for Shop Local, which will feature the Triangle-based company.

“The fact that people were able to hold the different sized Slateplates in their hands at the Showcase, feel their texture, the nice smooth edges was a definite plus,” she said, adding, “People were really interested in the engraving options.”

Slateplate engraving helps commemorate events like weddings or say thank you to friends, relatives, and employees with a unique, practical, elegant, and enduring touch, customized with a message, logo, or even GPS location or street address to memorialize a new home purchase.

Slateplate recently opened a new production studio and demo facility less than two miles from the popular White Oak Crossing retail, dining, and entertainment center in Garner. The new location houses offices, warehouse, shipping and receiving, digital engraving, and a “model home” showcase displaying multiple ideas for using Slateplate to bring the beauty of nature indoors for any occasion.

The company is in the process of unveiling new bachelorette and bachelor packages of personalized gifts for bridesmaids and grooms: engraved 8”x14” Slateplates, gift-wrapped and personalized for a specific event.

Slateplate is the sturdiest, safest, most versatile slate serving tray in the world, perfect for chefs, foodies and just plain fun. For more information, or to order online visit www.slateplate.com.
