Vendome has been a successful family business going on four generations. We have operated continuously since the early 1900's. Throughout its history, our company has been shaped by dramatic events. Prohibition and its subsequent repeal. World Wars. Natural disasters. Rising technology. The emergence and growth of new industries.

We have always adapted to change and welcome the challenge and opportunities it offers. Yet, the principles upon which Vendome was founded - uncompromising quality and superior service - remain constant. Our business success still relies heavily on the unique skills of master craftsmen and management's commitment to superior customer service. Always has, always will.

As we move into the 21st century, we will continue to use new materials, improved technology and the most practical production processes. And, we will continue to expand our horizons. That makes good business sense. But our dedication to quality and service will never change. That makes even better business sense.
