• If You Want to Grow, You Must Learn to Let Go
  • On October 13th, 2017 CWD sold the last of our tourism related assets, our souvenir store “5681/Niagara Souvenirs”, located at 5681 Victoria Avenue here in Niagara Falls. This was a fundamental building block for where we are at today.
  • Many of the philosophies we follow as a team today started in the souvenir business back in 1984 and we can see them today reflected in our core values of development, efficiency, innovation, accountability and excellence.
