The Chester Frame Company started in a small loading dock space behind what was then my frame shop. One of my frame reps told me more than once that he could sell the custom frames I designed and made. In 2015 I decided to take him up on it. I asked him how many frames he thought we could sell in a year and he said maybe 100. I thought that was a doable number considering I still owned a busy retail shop. Well, we sold 100 frames in the first quarter and we were off and running. I sold my frame shop a few years later and have loved every day of growing the Chester Frame Company.
