May 26, 2010 // Franchising.com // McAllen, TX – Children's Orchard of Southern Texas was recently recognized for its success in business with the Sham Wow! Marketing Award at the company's national conference in Ann Arbor, MI.

This month, Donahi Bunt and Enedina Zertuche were recognized for their achievement in going above and beyond in developing and implementing creative marketing concepts. Hosting different fashion shows throughout McAllen is just one of the many ways that the owners have shown creativity while implementing new marketing concepts.

"We're very proud to be recognized from among a national system of dedicated business owners, "said Bunt, owner of Children's Orchard in McAllen. "This achievement couldn't have been possible without our hardworking staff and loyal customers."

The 2010 Children's Orchard Franchise Conference took place this month at the corporate headquarters in Ann Arbor, MI. Children's Orchard franchise owners from across the country came together to learn from one another and share best practices.

"Donahi and Enedina have gone above and beyond to uphold Children's Orchard brand standards and to provide families with quality children's products at deeply discounted prices," said Children's Orchard Executive Vice President, Cathy Marks. "They are truly worthy of this award."
