Hi Everyone!

When we started Qterie just three years ago, we were determined to bring the gifting industry something new, modern and with features and benefits you've never had. I believe our original goals of providing new supplies, the ability to customize and a modern flare were achieved.

Qterie has become a "go to" place for retailers who need amazing products in their stores and designers who are curating the perfect gift boxes and baskets. I am SO grateful for your support, your trust and your patience. THANK YOU for all of your support. I'm excited to let go and know the company is going to be in GREAT hands.

I also want to thank so many vendors for trusting my vision and working with me along the way. I've learned a lot and without you, Qterie wouldn't exist.

Don't worry - I'm not going anywhere, just loosening my responsibilities so I can spend more time focusing on my health, Jocelyn & Co, The Gifting Marketplace and of course, The Gift Basket Association. And, we hope to see you at The Gift Designers Conference in August.

Debbie
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

QTERIE HAS BEEN SOLD!
PEORIA, AZ, May 1, 2021 - It was just three years ago that Alex & Debbie Quintana coined the company name "Qterie" - short for a passion Debbie has - charcuterie boards. Qterie was created to provide the gifting industry with new products - products that weren't being used by other companies and products that could be personalized specifically for their designs and visions. "Qterie needs more time than I can give it right now and it would be irresponsible for me to continue to ignore the growth," said Debbie Quintana. "It was a very easy decision to sell and an even easier decision of who to sell the company to!"

On May 1, 2021, Melanie Jones of The Frisco Gifting Company is the new owner of Qterie. Based in Frisco, Texas, Qterie will be in a more central location and with the rising costs of transportation, this will help Qterie clients pay less shipping and receive their shipments faster. More important, Melanie is well educated in the industry with her own successful gifting company and as a client of Qterie. And the best part, she is dedicated to continuing Debbie's original vision and effort to help the industry grow...helping others is her passion, too.

The transition will take 3-4 weeks to complete. During that time, there will be NO downtime on orders being filled. You can still place orders at www.qterie.com.
