Red Heart Named Most Recommended Yarn Brand

CHARLOTTE, N.C., March 12, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- As the leading advocate for female consumers, WomenCertified Inc. is delighted to honor the Red Heart Yarn brand with the 2015 Women's Choice Award^® seal. This award designation is based on a national survey of thousands of women across America who were asked to select the brands they would most highly recommend to family and friends. 

"The Women's Choice Award program works to raise awareness among consumers about which brands are most recommended by women and to honor those brands," said Delia Passi, CEO and Founder. "By carrying the Women's Choice Award seal, brands like Red Heart Yarn signify their commitment to empower women to make smart buying choices."

According to a 2012 Fleishman Hillard Study, today's U.S. female consumer values the opinion of others and over half of all women consider one of their roles to be that of a broadcaster, responsible for helping others make smart choices. It is not surprising that major brands, like Red Heart Yarn, now focus on delivering a customer experience women will love. The Women's Choice Award has set the standard for helping women make smarter choices by identifying the brands most recommended and trusted by women, along with those that deliver a recommendation-worthy customer experience.

Ms. Passi says it's important to note that the award doesn't just signify that Red Heart Yarn has women's favor – it signifies that women are willing to recommend it to others. "When a woman is willing to recommend a brand or service to others, it means that business has earned her loyalty. Those are the businesses we wish to recognize for their efforts and commitment to the No. 1 consumer – women," she says.

"Receiving the Women's Choice Award is testimony to Red Heart's commitment to delighting knitters and crocheters with great yarns and pattern inspirations, all crafted with love," said Alyson Bell, Vice President of Marketing.  "When consumers choose our products and recommend Red Heart over other brands, it is the highest accolade we could be given."

"We are pleased to salute Red Heart Yarn for their focus on excellence, a commitment that is recognized by women consumers nationwide," Passi says.
