New ChoiceWorld.com Shopping Mall Offers e-Shoppers a Quicker Route to Products Online

 

 

Over 200 Merchandise Categories Offer Extensive Product Variety

 

 

Calgary, Alberta -- November 20, 2000 -- Online searching and shopping for products just got easier with the launch of ChoiceWorld.com. The site's straightforward design simplifies the search task and lets visitors find the products they want with fewer clicks. This online shopping mall offers large brand merchants as well as smaller, more exclusive retailers.

"Our primary goal was to make it easier and more enjoyable for our customers to connect to the products they want to buy," says David Gallagher, president and CEO of QCommerce, Inc., owner of ChoiceWorld.com. "Over the coming months, we will continue to add and enhance our site's features to offer shoppers a highly customized environment with useful shopping tools."

An expanded product category listing, detailed site descriptors as well as the product oriented search engine makes shopping more convenient. Most products on the Web site can be reached in fewer than three clicks. The site features an extensive assortment of merchants in over 200 different categories, including large brand names such as the Disney Store, OshKosh B'Gosh, and Esprit. Boutique merchants offer an eclectic array of specialty products. BedHead offers high quality women's sleepwear, which has become a favorite with celebrities and Hollywood alike, having been featured in numerous television shows such as Friends and Will and Grace. ChoiceWorld's Victorian Rocking Horse Co. sells hand carved wooden rocking horses that make a one-of-a-kind gift. At the Great Scot Shop, clan tartans and crests, custom-made kilts and Celtic jewelry can be found, without making a trip to Scotland.

For Christmas, ChoiceWorld.com is making holiday shopping simple. The home page provides 10 great gift suggestions, and with one click, shoppers are directly linked to the merchant listings. The site also highlights holiday specials, great deals and a Shoppers Resources Center that provides tips on shopping online. Another new site feature, myReminder, will be added within the next two weeks, where registered ChoiceWorld.com shoppers can sign up and receive email reminder service for birthdays, holidays and other special occasions.

New visitors to ChoiceWorld.com can enter the Stocking Full of Cash giveaway, where a $1,000 cash prize will be given away weekly, until December 18. Shoppers can enter to win as often as they wish and a new entry is provided with every visit to a new merchant.
