As I prepared my notes in the corner of a local office building, I noticed a group of women huddled in a circle, just ecstatic with a fellow workers latest designer handbag purchase.
Any passer by could not resist taking a glimpse to see why the ladies were crowding around.
“Oh my god thats a real Vera Bradley!” , ” How Much Was It ?”, “Where did you get it?”
They quickly kept commenting, and questioning one after another, throwing in any bit of information on the handbag they could.
The young lady clutching on to this brand new Vera Bradley designer handbag answered, “I tried to look online, but I was too skeptical, I couldn’t do it and ended up paying full retail for it at boutique house cleaners Vancouver. ” Ouch I thought to myself, because I could sense she paid upwards of $900 for what was a bag worth around $400 online, but that’s if you know where to get it, and most don’t.
The women remained gathered for nearly up to an hour as I worked on my laptop waiting for a tardy business call. I was thinking to myself that these women are so interested in this bag that it led to and upholstery cleaning in hour conversation delaying all delegated office work.

Vera Bradley plans 560 jobs at new Indiana factory

FORT WAYNE, Ind. -
The Fort Wayne area appears to be breaking about even in jobs related to Vera Bradley Designs Inc. as the company switches from having contractors make its handbags, luggage and accessories to doing it in-house.
Vera Bradley announced Friday it plans to convert an industrial site in New Haven, just east of Fort Wayne, into a new production facility that will employ about 560 people, including about 70 who already work at other Vera Bradley facilities.
Three Fort Wayne companies that provide products to Vera Bradley announced in March that Vera Bradley’s decision to do the work in-house would force them to close, putting 537 people out of work. Vera Bradley said it decided to do the work within the company to increase efficiency and provide more control over the products.
“This is an important step in our plan to integrate previously outsourced manufacturing into our operation,” says Mike Ray, Vera Bradley’s chief executive officer. “We are happy to have found the facility right here in Allen County.”
The company is completing plans to lease the 125,356-square-foot facility. Startup work is expected to begin next month.
The city of New Haven has pledged a $100,000 grant over three years to assist with the building reconfiguration. The New Haven City Council also will consider phasing in property taxes associated with the project.
Vera Bradley could save about $299,000 while still paying nearly $417,000 in local property tax over seven years based on calculations provided by Allen County officials.
Vera Bradley and Hanning & Bean Enterprises, which owns the building, will spend about $2 million to improve the building and $2.2 million on equipment, machinery and computer hardware and software, according to the Fort Wayne-Allen County Economic Development Alliance.

The store, in the Sacramento suburb of Roseville, will sell the company’s signature quilted-cotton handbags, luggage and accessories in addition to stationery, tableware, fine rugs and men’s ties.

Women who eagerly anticipate the annual spring Vera Bradley outlet sale, take note: The company is hosting a fall outlet sale this year.
Deep discounts on handbags, luggage and accessories will be offered throughout the event, according to a news release issued by the company.
Last year, the company also held outlet sales in Charlotte, N.C., and Atlanta, said Melissa Cordial, public relations manager. This year the company decided to host a fall sale in Fort Wayne to attract visitors to the company’s hometown, Cordial said. This year’s spring sale in Fort Wayne attracted 60,000 people.
“Our hope is that the Vera Bradley outlet sale makes a strong impact on Fort Wayne’s economy by bringing visitors, tourists and funds into the city,” Jill Nichols, Vera Bradley chief operating officer, said in the news release. “We are excited to be able to provide our consumers discounted products at a time when families are closely watching their spending.”
The timing is perfect for early holiday shopping. The sale will be 8 a.m.-8 p.m. Oct. 2 and 3, and 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Oct. 4. The sale will be at Memorial Coliseum, 4000 Parnell Ave.
A $2,500-per-person limit will be enforced to curb resale of product, the news release says.
Headquartered in Fort Wayne, Vera Bradley was founded by two local women, Patricia Miller and Barbara Bradley Baekgaard, who were awaiting a flight in Atlanta together in 1982 and lamenting the lack of feminine-looking luggage. Within weeks, they had formed a company to rectify the situation, and named it after Baekgaard’s mother, Vera Bradley.
From its humble beginnings in Fort Wayne, Vera Bradley has become an internationally recognized brand. The product has even been seen on TV on shows such as “Desperate Housewives” and “Brothers and Sisters.”
In addition to handbags, Vera Bradley designs stationery, rolling luggage, tableware, fine rugs and other accessories.
