Last week the team came together to reflect on 2025, plan for 2026, and collaborate on ways to keep doing what we do, but better. We left the retreat ecstatic for the year ahead and grateful to work with the best team alongside the best manufacturers this industry has to offer.

We hosted our first annual Manhattan Tree Trimming and the office is officially feeling festive! Nothing brings a team together like setting up a new Christmas tree, arguing over ornament placement, and sipping manhattans. It wouldn’t be the holidays without a little drama ;)
