Vindico Celebrates 10,000 Stores by Opening Opportunity

To celebrate the opening of its 10,000th store Vindico has launched ‘Opening Opportunity’, a business-for-good campaign that gives the opportunity of education for every brand opened. At the launch event, held at Waitrose & Partners at The Galleria Al Maryah Island in Abu Dhabi, Vindico CEO & Managing Director, Richard Kim, announced that Vindico had given 10,000 days of schooling to children in India through its partnership with the social enterprise B1G1.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates., December 18, 2019 -- To celebrate the opening of its 10,000th store Vindico has launched ‘Opening Opportunity’, a business-for-good campaign that gives the opportunity of education for every brand opened. The opening of Waitrose & Partners at The Galleria Al Maryah Island in Abu Dhabi is the 10,000th time Vindico has coordinated the people and processes that need to come together to open a retail brand’s store inside a new shopping centre project.

In celebration, Vindico has given 10,000 days of schooling to children in India to launch ‘Opening Opportunity’, an initiative that gives the opportunity of education for every shop or restaurant that Vindico helps open.

Hitting this milestone reflects Vindico’s track record and passion for working with retail property developers and the businesses behind the brands that create a new shopping centre’s retail experience, a role growing in importance as retail property reinvents itself to meet the expectations of digital age customers.

Peter Row, Vindico Co-Founder explains: “As entrepreneurs, we understand the role business can and should play in making a positive impact and as we have expanded internationally, we have always sought to be gracious guests in the countries we operate in. ‘Opening Opportunity’ puts these two values into action by becoming a business for good that gives back to the communities that host us.”

“The next 10,000 brands we open in retail development projects will be very different – who they are, their physical formats and evolving commercial models. We see most of these being delivered in emerging markets such as India, where we will be launching in 2020, which as they open will also give many more children something we value greatly - the opportunities that come from education.”

About the ‘Opening Opportunity’ launch event, Morne Fourie, General Manager for Marketing at Waitrose UAE said: “Vindico representing our Landlord partner, Gulf Related, made it easy for our team to focus on the design and fitout of our new store by managing the complexity that comes with opening in a large shopping centre project. We are happy we could celebrate our collective effort in our new Waitrose Al Maryah.”

Liam Collins, Senior Project Manager at Gulf Related, commented: “I have worked with Vindico on a number of retail projects both in the UK and the UAE. It is reassuring to have Vindico as a partner as their experience and expertise is crucial to providing a positive outcome for the mall opening, as evidenced at The Galleria Al Maryah Island. The Gulf Related team is happy that their 10,000th store opened at The Galleria Al Maryah Island and congratulate them on launching ‘Opening Opportunity’.“

Vindico has opened 10,000 brands in 65 properties across three continents including Dubai Festival City, World Trade Centre Abu Dhabi, Yas Mall, Dubai Airport, Mall of Qatar and The Galleria Al Maryah across the Middle East.

Small-town Publisher Has International Reach Multicultural Books Offered to A Diverse World

How does a tiny local publisher reach readers in the Philippines or Africa? Technology.

Midvale, Utah, USA., December 12, 2019 -- Small-town Publisher Has International Reach Multicultural Books Offered to A Diverse World.

WHAT: Multicultural publisher Premio Publishing & Gozo Books (648 W. Wasatch St., Midvale, Utah, 84047)
WHO: Diverse authors, illustrators and narrators
WHEN: Since 2004
WHERE: PremioBooks.com, Amazon/Kindle, Baker & Taylor, Barnes & Noble/Nook, Brodart, Follett, Apple/iBooks, Ingram, Walmart.com, Target.com
MORE INFO: Bestselling multicultural children’s book publisher has roughly 80 titles (many award-winning) in 15+ languages sold around the world and found in major book/ebook/audiobook venues nationwide.

STORY IDEA:
How does a tiny local publisher reach readers in the Philippines or Africa? Technology. In past decades, only large publishing houses had the resources to get books to the masses. Today, anyone with Internet access can upload a novel to the connected world.

Still, getting readers to notice and buy is another challenge altogether. The big publishers still have muscle behind their promos, but with 15 years’ experience — and about 130 book products under his belt — publisher Karl Beckstrand has carved out his own multicultural niche. Even big reviewers, like Kirkus, Publisher’s Weekly and School Library Journal have voiced approval.

And he’s garnered awards. His 2016 Western book, “To Swallow the Earth” won a 2016 International Book Award. The State of Vermont selected his earning book “The Bridge of the Golden Wood” as business/financial literacy curriculum for grade schoolers. “Polar Bear Bowler: A Story Without Words” was called ‘charming … full of … polish and physical comedy,’ by Publisher’s Weekly. “She Doesn't Want the Worms - Ella no quiere los gusanos” was named in the top 10 ‘Best Books’ of 2011 by ForeWord Reviews magazine and was featured in School Library Journal.

This year alone, Beckstrand has released 17 new products. “Some are bilingual; many are hard cover editions of previous titles,” he said. “I’m especially pleased with the audiobook release of my western novel.”

So how does he get noticed? “I’ve considered bribery,” joked Beckstrand, “but I have some standards.” Really, it’s persistence. After ensuring he had quality products, Beckstrand hounded the major book distributors used by New York publishers — and won signed contracts with large global wholesalers.

Now Beckstrand’s bilingual picture books/e-books with pronunciation guide (consistent best sellers) can be found in India, Australia and Germany. His work is even found on Walmart’s and Target’s web sites. Beckstrand’s publishing company, PremioBooks.com, has also donated hundreds of books to needy kids around the world.

“It’s always work,” said Beckstrand. “Kid’s books are in perhaps the most competitive genre. You always have to find fun ways to stand out — and your target audience is always aging out — so you constantly have to publicize to new readers.” His books have twists and online secrets found at https://premiobooks.com.

Inclusion is actually critical to success. Beckstrand’s diverse children’s books feature black, white, Hispanic, American Indian, Islander and Asian characters. “I grew up in a cosmopolitan part of the country,” said Beckstrand — who speaks Spanish and is learning German. My books simply reflect the world as I know it.” For more details on multicultural books, see https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/23/health/diversity-in-childrens-books/index.html.

“Really, my target audience includes teachers, librarians and parents,” said Beckstrand. “But getting your work in front of those eyes is a never-ending chore.”

It is time well spent. “It’s always a thrill when a library system or school district includes your books,” said Beckstrand. Amazon sales don’t hurt either. Hear the audiobook at https://www.amazon.com/Swallow-Earth-Western-Thriller/dp/B07VGP9DC6.

As a kid, Beckstrand wanted to be a rock star — not a publisher. Before publishing he worked in human resources, hospitality and public policy. His first publisher died the day his book was to print. Even after getting a master’s degree in international relations, Beckstrand feels his most valuable education has come from running a business and living abroad. “I did get to sing professionally — in a wedding band,” he said. So his bucket list is mostly complete.

Premio Publishing & Gozo Books has been delighting readers since 2004. Our award-winning multicultural YA fiction, e-book mysteries, nonfiction/biographies, Spanish language & bilingual picture books (with ESL/ELL pronunciation guide), short stories, wordless books, Up-lit, and activity STEM books (astronomy, zoology, ecology) feature diverse characters in vivid color. Nationally lauded (Publisher’s Weekly, Kirkus, ForeWord Reviews, Horn Book blog, School Library Journal), our humorous, educational children’s books capture attention and create repeat readers. While not about racial diversity, these stories have contributors of various ethnicities and feature black, white, Asian, Pacific Islander, Hispanic, American Indian, and mixed-race characters—with family values like courage, sharing, and loyalty. Find our family friendly/clean books via: Amazon/Kindle, Baker & Taylor, Barnes & Noble, Biblioboard, Brodart, Brigham Distributing, ChildrensPlusInc, EBSCO, Flipkart, Follett, Gardners, iBooks, Ingram, Inktera, Kobo, Library Direct, Mackin, OverDrive, Permabound, SCRIBD, txtr, Target.com, Walmart, and Premiobooks.com (FREE online books); a gift of laughter, learning & family fun for ages two and up. https://www.facebook.com/PremioBooks, https://Premiobooks.com

Media professor Karl Beckstrand is the bestselling and award-winning author/illustrator of 22 multicultural/multilingual books and more than 60 ebook titles (reviews by Publisher’s Weekly, Kirkus, School Library Journal, The Horn Book’s blog, ForeWord Reviews). Raised in San Jose, CA (he knows the secret to peeling avocados), he has a B.A. in journalism from BYU, an M.A. in international relations from APU, and a broadcast/film certificate from Film A. Academy. Since 2004 he has run Premio Publishing. His survival western, To Swallow the Earth, won a 2016 International Book Award. Beckstrand has presented to Taiwan’s Global Leadership for Youth, city and state governments, festivals, and schools. His nationally lauded Y.A. stories, ebook mysteries, nonfiction, Spanish/bilingual/ESL, wordless, career, and STEM books feature ethnically diverse characters—and usually end with a twist. His work has appeared in: Amazon, Baker & Taylor, Barnes & Noble, Costco, Deseret Book, Follett, iBooks, Ingram, Papercrafts Magazine, Target.com, The U.S. Congressional Record, Walmart.com, FB, Twitter, https://KarlBeckstrand.com, https://PremioBooks.com

American Hemp Processing to Roll-Out Mobile Extraction Unit Capacity Will Increase to 400k Lbs per Month

American Hemp Processing (AHP) is excited to announce the design completion of their Mobile Hemp Extraction Unit (MEHU).

Sacramento, California., December 11, 2019 -- American Hemp Processing (AHP) is excited to announce the design completion of their Mobile Hemp Extraction Unit (MEHU). This is a key step in AHP’s expansion to increase production to 400,000lbs of hemp per month that will be completed 1st quarter 2020. The mobility of the MEHU reduces overall processing costs, mitigates many of the risks associated to transportation, and increases transparency with farmers.

The MHEU units bring significant benefits to the farmer from both a financial and risk mitigation perspective. “Most hemp farms are not close to processing facilities. Transportation is a large cost and increases the risk of degradation and contamination. On top of that, farmers still have to deal with legal issues in states that aren’t familiar with hemp and mistake it for marijuana.” Says Andrew Alvarez Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer “Additionally, it increases transparency with farmers and helps educate them along the way to build synergistic relationships”.

“The design of the MHEU was Phase 2 of our strategy”, says Shick Park Co-Founder and Chief Operations Officer, “Phase 1 was developing a scalable extraction and remediation process enabling us to create high quality and compliant CBD oil, and Phase 3 is the roll-out of the mobile extraction units on to farms fall of 2020.”

“This caps off a 12 month design process by our engineers and now we go to the assembly phase. These units will take approximately 120 days each to build, and we plan to initially build 3.” Says Co-Founder and CEO Tom Richardson. “This has been a very rewarding journey for us, from meeting farmers all over the country, to government legislators, to fine tuning the extraction process, to meeting other processors and sharing ideas, we feel very confident about the Cannabinoid Sector business.”

About American Hemp:
American Hemp Processing – AHP Is an Industrial Hemp Processor Focused on Cannabinoid Extraction, Purification, and Chromatography Separation. Services and products include: Tolling, Splits, Crude, Distillate, T-Free, Remediation and White Label. They pride themselves on quality, and being able to build win-win relationships with farmers, distributors and end users.

Palo Alto, CA., December 6, 2019 -- Eureka.Fun LLC has launched the mobile app, available for iOS and Google Play Store, Eureka Love App. The new dating app states “Find Love Among Your Friends”, which mainly focuses on dating people we already know. Accordingly to Facebook survey, nearly 53 percent of online daters have a crush on someone they already met in real life but are afraid to admit it.

Moreover, studies have shown that about one in 10 Americans has tried online dating.

Eureka helps the user to connect with people they already know in real life. Sometimes understanding feelings and intentions of other people can be complicated.

- The app is intuitive and easy to use, there is a tutorial to answer all the questions
- Users can fill in simple but straightforward profile with exciting info to know more about potential partners

- Users can express their love without any fear, because unless feelings are mutual, no one will know about that
- If there is a mutual match, users can start private chat.

Eureka App has already gained popularity among college students and work colleagues: those  who spend enough time together to start feeling something in common besides work. In short, Eureka app delivers users’ feelings straight to their love phone and comes back only with an affirmative answer. Eureka.Fun LLC is based in Palo Alto, CA and was founded in early 2019.

Bringing Home More than Just the Tree: Common Bugs Found in Live Christmas Trees

There could be hundred or thousands of tiny crawling creatures just waiting to be transported into the home inside live Christmas trees.

High Point, NC, United States., December 5, 2019 -- It’s the happy moment seen on friends’ social media posts these days: finding the Christmas Tree! But behind the smiling faces and the magic that perfect tree represents, could be hundred or thousands of tiny crawling creatures just waiting to be transported into the home.

The most common Christmas tree pests are aphids, spiders, and certain types of beetles. Most pests found on Christmas trees are not dangerous, but just unsightly and disturbing. Follow these steps to reduce the chances of bringing these insects into the home along with thetree:

Take a close look at the tree before taking it home.

Read online reviews from others whom have purchased trees at the same location.

Before bringing the tree inside, give it a good shake. If anything falls out, get a new tree.

Let the tree hang out outside the home for a day or two before bringing it inside to decorate it. Shake it once more before bringing it in and look for anything to fall out.

If after all these steps insects still get inside the home, vacuum the tree and flooring as thoroughly and frequently as possible and dispose of the vacuum contents in an outside trash bin.

If the problem persists or is too large to manage, consider contacting a professional pest control company to help rid of the infestation.

Chase Hazelwood, third generation owner of Go-Forth Pest Control explains, “Every year, without fail, our company receives panicked calls from homeowners begging our team to come out right away because aphids or spiders came into the home with the live Christmas tree. It’s just a hazard that can come along with that festive smell of a freshly cut Christmas Tree. Of course, our company is here to help.”
