For Champion, a Solid Past Helps Build a Bright Future in the Home Improvement Market

CINCINNATI, Aug. 31, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Champion Window, www.ChampionFactoryDirect.com, one of the nation's leading home improvement companies, has earned the number two spot on Qualified Remodeler magazine's list of overall Top Performers in 2010, having reported total gross sales in excess of $316 million. Champion also ranked first place in the individual categories for windows, siding and sunrooms. Champion has been recognized as a Top Performer overall in each of the past ten years.

"Performing at such a high level, even during tough economic times, is a testament to the Champion employees' dedication to quality customer service and providing a superior product – both in our corporate offices and in each of our showrooms nationwide," said Denny Manes, CEO of Champion Window.  

With stores currently operating in 86 cities, Champion Window remains on the fast track to growth while remaining focused on its primary goal of providing customers with the best experience and customized home improvement solutions. Additionally, each of Champion's showrooms across the country participates in their local community by supporting local causes and charities that serve the communities where they do business.

"From our summer-long Close the Window on Hunger food drive in support of local food banks, to donating products and installations for local non-profit organizations like the Ronald McDonald House in Syracuse, NY and the September 11th Memorial at the Steelton Fire Department in Steelton, PA, Champion is committed to being a valuable contributor to each community that we serve" added Manes.

"While many internal factors contribute to our customer satisfaction and business growth, Champion also credits external influences for impacting sales and growth," added Manes.  "Current economic conditions and energy costs top the list of such market drivers. Many homeowners are looking to reduce their escalating energy costs and are upgrading their windows and or siding to more energy-efficient options."

"It is a great time for customers to take advantage of government tax incentives for installing energy-efficient windows and doors. These tax credits can save homeowners up to $500 depending on the project," said Manes.

Started in 1953, Champion Window is one of the nation's leading home improvement companies. Champion manufactures, sells and installs vinyl replacement windows, entry doors and patio rooms.  It also sells and installs siding. More than 45,000 homeowners join the ranks of customers on an annual basis. Champion's energy-efficient products help consumers save money on their utility bills year-round. Champion's control over every aspect of manufacturing, distribution, installation and servicing provides a single source of accountability for its customers, removing all concerns about who is responsible for their home improvement project. The company operates factories in Cincinnati, Ohio, and Denver, Colo.
