HATFIELD, Pa., Oct. 3, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- World Wide Stereo once again proves Newton's first law ("an object in motion tends to stay in motion") with another winning year and a 40th anniversary that, considering the fate of so many family-owned small businesses, represents a remarkable run.
To celebrate, the company and its 100+ employees are planning a number of private and public events, sales and special promotions through the end of 2019. Playful throwback nuggets will be sprinkled throughout World Wide Stereo's website, branding, and social media, including a timeline that takes users back to how the company came to be and how it got to where it is today: "from Ziggy to Gaga and boomboxes to Bluetooth".
Founder, former-CE Pro President, and recent Consumer Technology Hall of-Fame inductee Bob Cole points to the company's long-held mantra as the primary reason for the company's continued success: "we've done well by doing good." Indeed, after opening the doors in 1979, Bob and his first two employees – wife Karen and long-time partner Ron Rumer – went from 8-track tape players and Atari to million dollar home theaters and whole house smart home integration – while keeping their promise to help kids at every opportunity. To wit: World Wide Stereo equips and installs the latest home entertainment technology in both St. Christopher's Hospital for Children and Philadelphia's own Ronald McDonald House.
These days, the company has expanded its reach via a national e-commerce site, which continues to grow at an exponential rate, and a 13,500 square foot distribution center in Hatfield, PA. World Wide Stereo customers can shop the store through the company's website (http://www.worldwidestereo.com) and/or catch up on the latest in home entertainment news and product reviews on its YouTube channel, and best-in-class Gear Guides.
The flagship store (or "Bob and Ron's" as the locals like to call it) on Route 309 in Montgomeryville remains a long-standing Philadelphia-area institution, and the recently remodeled store in Ardmore, PA serves the city's well-to-do Main Line neighborhoods. The stores were awarded the coveted "2019 Best of Philly" recognition in Philadelphia Magazine's 46th annual "Best of Philly" awards (http://www.phillymag.com), recognizing a curated list of distinguished businesses, people, and events in varied categories, from food and wellness to shopping and entertainment. Within the Shopping and Style category, World Wide Stereo was recognized as the"best"– leading in cutting edge technology citing: "Outdoor flat-screens, lights controlled from your master-bath mirror, and a home theater that will make Spike Lee jealous". A fabulous way to kick off a 40th birthday celebration!
