Koalafi proudly congratulates Markia Baker, Loan Specialist, and her business partner Navi on winning our third annual start-up competition with their marketing strategy firm, NM Legaci Marketing. Koalafi launched the Start-Up Competition two years ago as part of our #Entrepreneurship Program. This program helps Koalafi employees interested in starting their own companies gain some of the skills and perspectives required of founders. The competition winner gets three months to incubate their business as a Koalafi employee, allowing them to refine their business plan while still having access to all of Koalafi's resources and the security of a salary. ➡ Read more about Markia and Navi's win on our blog: https://lnkd.in/ef9NZijN ➡ Check out NM Legaci Marketing's website to learn more about what makes this company so special: https://lnkd.in/ehGaUEff

Koalafi and Tetiana Marshall celebrated the opening of The Wellsville Group's 19th store with their team. The crowd's excitement for this beautiful new store was incredible, highlighting the positive impact that #retail partners have on their local communities. Congratulations to the Wellsville Group; we are proud to be your partner!
Welcome to our 19th store, in New Philadelphia, Ohio! Hands down, the longest line and biggest crowd we've ever seen. By a huge margin. None of this would be possible without The Wellsville Group's team of unmatched talent. All departments had a role in this massive project and a simple 'thank you' doesn't cut it. This beautiful 7.0 store features a style for every home, and options for every budget. It's easily our most beautiful showroom to date. We are appreciative for all of the on-site support from premier partners like Ashley Global Retail (Sean Murphy, Meredith M., Andrew Fella, Anthony Bakken), BEDGEAR (Leslie Clay), Purple (Sarah Kelly), Koalafi (Tetiana Marshall), Tempur Sealy International (Shane Pearson, Daniel Sheridan), Gadfly Marketing (Jon Gadbois), Elite Rewards (Jeff Magner, Brian Layman), TD, Concora Credit, Serta Simmons Bedding, LLC, KERRICOOK CONSTRUCTION, INC., New Towne Mall, and many, many others. Stay tuned for store #20, coming this summer!
