How DutchCrafters Grew Amidst Global Pandemic

Business

One year after the pandemic broke out, the largest online retailer of Amish Furniture at www.dutchcrafters.com not only remains open but is experiencing significant growth despite 90 perfect of staff members working from home. Vice President Jim Miller said “I look back on 2020 as one of the best years and one of the worst years. It was the best because of the phenomenal growth we had and the new jobs we were able to create through that process.  It was one of the worst years because we have been in work-from-home mode for so long, which has had an erosive effect on our ability to connect with one another, as well as our company culture, leadership, and onboarding process.”
