Community College Student provides prospective American Consumers with a 'taste of Irish' - 4th May 2010
Jane Kenny, Transition Year (Athlone Community College)
arrives at the QVC studios Pennsylvania where she modelled a range of
Carraig Donn Aran Sweaters.
Jane Kenny a Transition Year student ar Athlone Community College won the hearts of Pennsylvania when she modelled a collection of Aran Sweaters for the Carraig Donn chain.
So impressed were the Americans that the Aran sweaters sold in their
thousands with the promise of many more orders to come.
This is a novel idea for the Carraig Donn stores at a time when we need
innovative ideas. This success story stems from Carraig Donn buyer Geraldine
Kenny (mother of Jane) who launched a very successful promotion on the
QVC shopping channel last year.
The response was overwhelming and this prompted Geraldine to take her daughter Jane on a trip to Pennsylvania where the duo embarked on a most successful sales project on St. Patricks day. Though still a Transition year student, Jane possesses the beauty and poise of a professional model and who knows one day she may grace the cover of Vogue!
