BROOKLINE, Mass. — vomFASS, 305 Harvard St, Brookline, MA 02446, will host a public grand opening event—November 7^th-8^th— to commemorate its newest franchise in Brookline, Coolidge Corner. On location events will include product samplings, wine and spirits tastings, cooking demonstrations, in-store promos and more!

“What a huge accomplishment this is for Candace Rassias and her staff to safely and successfully open during one of the most challenging times in our history,” said Thomas Kiderlen, Global CEO and owner of VOM FASS AG Germany.  “I’m very much looking forward to the future of this shop in the Brookline neighborhood and cannot wait for the opportunity to visit,” he said.

“From the moment Candace and I spoke about her interest in owning her own vomFASS location, I knew she had all the qualities we look for in a franchisee.  Her passion for food and great wine was enough for me to know her success was hers to own. vomFASS USA is proud to announce her as the newest member of our team.  Congratulations and here’s to your amazing start as an entrepreneur!” said Elaine R. Sugimura, CEO of vomFASS USA.

The City of Brookline and Chamber of Commerce will be on-site for a special ceremony on Friday, November 6^th.  Public events will follow on November 7^th-8^th, following all local safety regulations and social distancing guidelines.

“When life throws you curve balls you figure out a way to embrace the new normal,” said Kevin M. Frain, COO, vomFASS USA. “We are really excited about the Brookline store opening. It has been a challenging year, but we are extremely thankful to the town of Brookline, the property ownership and everyone else who worked diligently to assist us in getting the store opened.” he said. Kevin was on location from the start of Candace’s journey and has supported her throughout the store opening process, so he knows first-hand all of the challenges she faced as many policies and processes via COVID were yet to be determined.

“This has been a dream of mine for many years, to own my own boutique shop.  It had to be unique, experiential and full of amazing products!  Having found the vomFASS brand and the history behind the generational business from manufacturing to franchise owners, I knew I found my home.  I want to thank everyone who has been a part of the opening process from the property management team, vomFASS USA, the Coolidge Corner Merchants, the City of Brookline plus my family and friends.  I would not be here without you all!  Most importantly, to my customers, existing and new, I look forward to serving YOU!” said Candace Rassias, vomFASS Brookline franchisee.

NEW YORK — For vomFASS, 2019 commemorates 25 years of delivering the highest quality olive oils, vinegars, gourmet foods and spirits to customers around the world. vomFASS has over 300 franchise stores worldwide with a strong presence in Europe, expansion in Asia, South America and an emphasis on growing the franchise base in the United States.

“We are so excited to be able to celebrate this milestone with our franchisees from across the globe. 25 years is only possible because of our franchisees and the loyal customers who’ve supported the shops,” said Thomas Kiderlen, International CEO and owner of vomFASS.  “I very much look forward to another successful 25 years and would like to thank everyone for their hard work.  I would also like to thank our producers—many of which we’ve worked with for 25 years—for their dedication to producing only the finest quality products,” he said.

vomFASS held a special anniversary event at the company’s headquarters in Waldburg, Germany that was attended by over 270 franchisees. Highlights of the event included a private wine tasting with the winemakers, a marketplace with over 30 producers on-site, special product training sessions and more.  The event also allowed franchisees to network with colleagues from other countries to share ideas and invaluable experiences. The anniversary event culminated with a formal gala complete with live music, comedy performances, five course dinner, casino games and dance party.  Performers from Cirque du Sol wowed guests with high-wire acrobatic acts and art performances. Over 20 franchisees from the United States attended the event, with over 250 attendees in total.

The next US store is slated to open in the first quarter of 2020 and will be in Brookline, MA (Boston metropolitan area).  Since 2016, the US has become the second leading country in terms of volume within the vomFASS global system and projects to surpass Germany as the leader over the next decade.  vomFASS is actively seeking ideal candidates to join its franchise system in dynamic markets throughout the United States. With many retail ventures looking for unique experiences to offer their customer base, vomFASS answers this question by offering a taste-before-you-buy concept that is uniquely different from others in the market.  The popularity of the brand is growing in each region where existing franchises are located. The US market is poised to grow exponentially through an emphasis on developing unique products and exciting in-store events.
