"Working with OXO's Art Department, we were able to redesign and develop a fully functioning modern shopping cart for OXO," says Michael Burden, General Manager of Whirlwind Media Services. "The new site provides users with not only the ability to shop online but more importantly research each product line. The site provides OXO's customers with a variety of custom tools to find the product that best fits their needs. For those users who need it right away, the site's store finder feature provides instant access to hundreds of OXO distributors throughout the U.S. and abroad."
Graham Mew, TIE Technologies EVP added: "Over the last few months, Whirlwind has continued to rapidly expand the number of customers it is providing award winning services to, and has also completed the successful integration of Making Ideas Work into the Whirlwind family. Our New York City design studio has been substantially enhanced by this acquisition and is now supported by our new corporate headquarters established this fall in Nashville, TN. Whirlwind is poised for an exciting 2011."
