“This has long been one of my favorite places in the world to visit and
unwind,” said Marty Staff, Chief Executive Office of JA Apparel Corp. “I am
excited at the opportunity to partner with my friends, the Blanchards, in
enhancing the environment of their restaurant.”
Thirty years ago, Bob and Melinda Blanchard turned their frustrations with
their careers and lifestyle into a passionate pursuit of living a life of
meaning and significance. Through the creation of several businesses they
strove to identify what brought them happiness and built success by following
their hearts. Then, while on a trip to the Caribbean, as they sat cooking a
hamburger on the beach, they realized what their ultimate dream was, and a
short time later, they opened Blanchards Restaurant on a beach in Anguilla.
They captured their changes of course in their books, including A Trip to the
Beach, Live What You Love; Notes from an Unusual Life and the forthcoming
Changing Your Course, The 5-Step Guide to Getting the Life You Want.
“We are thrilled to be working with the Joseph Abboud brand,” said the
Blanchards. “Not only do they produce clothing that look and feel great, but
the people there share our ‘live what you love’ philosophy, making them a
perfect partner for us.”
