From The Vermont Teddy Bear Company, That Is...

A Brief History Of The Vermont Teddy Bear Company 

The Vermont Teddy Bear Company From Wikipedia

The Vermont Teddy Bear Company is one of the largest producers of teddy bears and the largest seller of teddy bears by mail order and Internet. The company handcrafts each of its teddy bears and produces almost 500,000 teddy bears each year.

The company was founded in 1981 by John Sortino, who sold handcrafted teddy bears in an open-air market in Burlington, VT. Sortino happened upon the idea of packaging and selling bears through the mail when a tourist visiting Burlington wanted a bear mailed to her home. The concept was called the "Bear-Gram", which features the customized teddy bear placed in a box (complete with an "air hole") and stuffed with other goodies.

By 1995, the company moved into its new headquarters in Vermont's Champlain Valley. The company currently has two factories: one in Shelburne and one in Newport. The Shelburne factory is an especially popular tourist destination, and also serves as a concert site for the annual Vermont Mozart Festival, offering a venue for family-oriented events.

A Little Information About Vermont 

Vermont State On Wikipedia

Vermont is a state in the New England region of the northeastern United States of America. The state ranks 45th by total area, and 43rd by land area at 9,250 square miles (24,000 km²), and has a population of 608,827, making it the second least populous state (second only to Wyoming). The only New England state with no coastline along the Atlantic Ocean, Vermont is notable for the Green Mountains in the west and Lake Champlain in the northwest. It is bordered by Massachusetts to the south, New Hampshire to the east, New York to the west, and the Canadian province of Quebec to the north. Originally inhabited by Native American tribes (Abenaki, and Iroquois), the territory that is now Vermont was claimed by France but became a British possession after France's defeat in the French and Indian War.
