MVB Communications. LLC Provides Creative Services Arlington, VA - July 14, 2009 - Garnier-Thiebaut, the world's finest luxury linen company, launches a new web site - www.gtlinens.com - showcasing its high quality linens for the table, bed and bath. With more than 2500 images, the site serves as an online catalog featuring the complete line of Garnier-Thiebaut hospitality and retail products. "It was time," said Vice-President of Sales Jean-Philippe Krukowicz. "We're an international company that needed a fresh, upscale look and feel, as represented in our extensive product line. The site is consistent with our marketing materials, giving us the consistent look to help us continue to build our brand in the US." Garnier-Thiebaut hired MVB Communications, an award-winning strategic communications consulting company located in the Washington, DC Metro area to create the site. "We're pleased to provide Garnier-Thiebaut with a robust site that doubles as an online catalog," said Michele V. Brier, owner of MVB Communications. The site gives the company a strong online presence and additional opportunities to educate customers, announce new collections and promote events." MVB Communications brought in web developer/designer Mark Beeson, of Beeson Creative Group, LLC in Fairfax, VA for the project. "We designed and developed the site to showcase over 400 Garnier-Thiebaut products by implementing a full php backend to ensure the needed site functionality," said Beeson. A comprehensive database and custom-designed template form the foundation of the dynamic site which is divided into two key areas - hospitality and retail. The site features easy-to-navigate menus, downloadable brochures and a company video, news and more. Visitors can enlarge photos to see the intricate details of the woven fabrics that are signature to Garnier-Thiebaut products. "It's so true that with web sites, the work is never truly finished," said Brier. "We will continue to tweak the site and ensure new products and other information is added regularly to keep it fresh." Garnier-Thiebaut's new web site was first showcased at the National Restaurant Association Show, May 16-19, 2009.
