Customer Reviews
Customer Service
Monroe, CT – September 26, 2007 - Church Hill Classics has recently relocated to a greatly expanded plant, warehouse, and executive office building, located in Monroe, CT. The company has expanded from a 30,000 square foot (leased) facility at its former Danbury location, to a 47,000 square foot, 9.3 acre campus at 594 Pepper Street.
Church Hill Classics, www.diplomaframe.com is a market leader in manufacturing, distribution, and sales of custom picture and document frames. The company creates licensed school and organization-specific presentations for diplomas, credentials, certifications, and also offers a line of coordinating medallion desk accessories. They also offer frames for military memorabilia and provide contract framing services to major corporations and mail-order retailers including the Danbury Mint and Golf Digest. For 2007, it is estimated that Church Hill Classics will produce and sell more than 110,000 custom frames, up from 90,000 in 2006.
Church Hill Classics employs 52 people and is increasing its work force by 10 in anticipation of continued growth in the Monroe facility. Church Hill Classics markets and sells most of its customized diploma and certificate frames through its network of relationships with more than 700 colleges and universities, along with numerous trade-industry and professional associations, and through their website, www.diplomaframe.com.. Church Hill Classics recently became the exclusive distributor of the “Level Lock” hanging system, a patented, innovative technique to simplify the process of hanging framed pieces to assure they are level, secure, and can be easily arranged in grouped arrays on a wall.
Church Hill’s new facilities represent another milestone for an enterprise that began in the basement of a Newtown, Connecticut home in 1991. The concept for manufacturing high-quality frame presentations which are tailored to a particular organization was the vision of Lucie Voves, who had career aspirations as an entrepreneur during her tenure working in Brand Management for Procter and Gamble. “ My goal is to keep building this business and focusing on what we do well. I’m really proud of being able to give a good working environment to a lot of people. Owning my own business has also given me some flexibility to be heavily involved in the community, which is something that I really enjoy doing”, states Voves.
