Merrell Shoes Corporate Office

Merrell Shoes was founded in 1981 by Clark Matis, Randy Merrell, and John Schweizer. The trio wanted a better quality hiking boot than they were able to find at a shoe or sporting goods stores. Merrell was already making very expensive hiking boots, and with Matis and Schweizer’s help, they designed a high-quality boot that was more affordable.

Today, the company sells not only hiking boots but all around sneakers, sandals, uniform boots and shoes, as well as children’s shoes and clothing. Merrell Shoes acts as a subsidiary of Wolverine World Wide, who purchased the company in 1997. In 2010, the company had annual revenue of more than $500 million. Company products are sold in more than 151 countries and online.

In 2018, Merrell president Sue Rechner said in an interview that she was concerned about Trump’s lack of balance when it came to decision making.

Merrell Shoes has headquarters in Rockford, Michigan. The company has more than 116 stores around the globe and has plans to add 20 – 25 new stores every year.

Cafe Toscano Corporate Office

Cafe Toscano was founded in Aurora, Ohio, in 2007. The company operates a mid-sized, upscale Italian food restaurant. The restaurant was located a few miles from another Italian restaurant, Bella Donna, which had been in business for nearly 20 years. Competition was stiff. The owner of Bella Donna met with Cafe Toscano owners, who decided that a partnership was a better way to work out their differences, rather than each trying to force the other out of business.

Cafe Toscano is a small to mid-sized restaurant (55 seats) that is more upscale than Bella Donna, which is more of a family restaurant. Cafe Toscano offers a wine selection, along with pasta dishes, soups, seafood, pizza and more. The restaurant is now open for both lunch and dinner, 7 days a week.

The company has plans to open a larger, more casual restaurant, which will seat 120, near the original location. At this time, headquarters for both restaurants remain in Aurora, Ohio.
