Everyone knows that living in Michigan you have to be prepared for anything as far as the weather goes. So shopping for the best and yet stylish coats and or jackets to keep you and your family members warm at a reasonable price can sometimes be a challenged. When traveling to Great Lakes Crossing Mall there was a new store that had been opened for four months called Donna Sacs. They seem to have a nice amount of people in their store shopping and that’s what seemed to attract my attention.
Donna sacs a local coat store which has four locations (Eastland, Northland, Fairlane and Oakland) and now has opened up at Great Lakes Crossing mall is known to be a great place to check out the variety of styles and coats to keep warm for the winter. Donna Sacs has been opened for as long as fifteen years and still has managed to keep the interest of their customers. Donna Sacs is a year round opened store except the newest location at Great Lakes Crossing Mall; they have a seasonal location and come back every year around the first of September.“I like working seasonal because in the summer I can go places and travel with the money I saved through the winter” said co-worker Stephanie Hall.
Donna Sacs isn’t just a coat store for one person they have all sizes and different brands of jackets. There leather jackets are real and genuine whether you like lamb skin or pig skin they have what you’re looking for. “We like to keep our customers interest, so even if they don’t find what they’re looking for I always seem to ask what jacket the company should get that would satisfy your needs, then tell the owners so they can look into it,” said manager Peggy Carter. Donna Sacs doesn’t just carry leather jackets but fox, furs, suede, wool and even also sell jackets from well known brands like Baby Phat, Sean John and Coogi.
Founded in 1796 as a retail management and still till this day Donna Sacs is retail. Donna sacs started off as just selling furs for a very expensive price, but as the years grew and grew there name was well known and expanded to selling winter coats and jackets for the whole family even little kids. Donna Sacs has just celebrated their thirty year anniversary that it’s been opened. Owner Emanuel Mansour said “My brother and I have managed to keep the business running smoothly. Even though I’m older know I even have my older son Marvin whose thirty-two years old look after the stores as well, making sure I haven’t made any mistakes”.
Co-worker at Donna Sacs in Great Lakes Mall, explained how she like working there and how Peggy her boss and the owners are very nice people. She also explained how this was her first year working for them and plans on working for them once again in September. Another co-worker at Oakland mall named Danielle Williams also explained how she has been working at Donna Sacs going on three years now and she loves it. “The only thing that I hate about this job is around holiday time, when it gets very hectic and busy. Customers aren’t always friendly but rather they are or not you always have to keep a smile on your face,” said Danielle Williams.
Like any other store Donna Sacs has competition with any other coat store in the malls, so being friendly and providing the best customer service is number one.
At Great Lakes Crossing Donna Sacs is due to close for the season and will be opening up once again at the end of year, as for the other locations they as usual will be opened all year and even having major sales on winter jackets. “even though were closing I for the season I always have fun and can’t wait to see what another year will bring us in September of 2009,” said manager Peggy Carter.
