Cleaning Up In Seymour

Old School Customer Care At Unity Pharmacy in Fairfield

Apr 29, 2014 Alex

Last week I met with Naga Mulpuri, the owner/pharmacist at Unity Pharmacy  at 1326 Post Road in Fairfield.  Before I met with her my first impression on the phone was the warmth she conveyed, it was confirmed when I met her in person.  She was genuine and the real deal like the old time pharmacies that you can't get with  big box pharmacies today.

Picking Up My Printing Job at Copy Break

Apr 22, 2014 Stephen Krauchick

Elaine and her crew at Copy Break did an outstanding job producing our media kits!  The printed materials we leave behind with clients are a representation of who we are.  I've been using the same media kit for over a year and when I dropped it off I could not believe how many typos they found!  You will NOT get this level of service with online services because they will just print it as they receive it. The staff at Copy Break is very friendly and helpful.  Whether you need copies of your resume or wide format copies like blueprints Copy Break at 1406 State Street can handle all your printing needs.  Call them at 203-367-3032.
