Look at the Pampered Chef Uk Flyer

A UK friend of mine was saying she needed money, so I of course, said PC! Anyhoo, I clicked on the link for their recruiting promo for Nov 1-15 (50% off kit) and look at what is in theirs

Wow! So completely different!

 

[vanscootin]

Yeah... I love the "PC Pounds"! And that dessert looks amazing!

 

[winklermom]

That looks like the bottom to a DCB in the middle. What is that?

I think it's the square baker....And I agree ~ I want the dessert recipe!Karen

 

[babywings76]

Wow! That's really nice!

Looks like a combination of the old super starter program and our current program. Notice that they're only getting PC Pounds for recruits. For their shows, they get a selection of products, not PC Pounds to choose their own.

I wish we still got catalogs for our recruits...

I think it's the depth of the deep covered baker, but in a rectangle shape! I like it!!!!

 

[winklermom]

It just seems odd to me that, since our products are already made in various locations around the globe, that they would have products that we do not. I wonder if we have things that is not available to them?

Someone posted a link to their catalog recently & they still had the woven pieces in there!

That is strange that so many things like that would be available in one area, but not in another. You would think it would be more cost-effective to have the same line for everyone.

Not necessarily. I'm sure things like import taxes determine the final cost of products in a particular country. Plus, it's more cost effective to warehouse the products in for a particular country in that country and ship from there, so another country may have a product in stock still that we no longer do.

What are you looking at? There is a square baker, an unglazed rectangle baker and the muffin pan as far as stoneware goes. Am I seeing the same thing? I would love to get a hold of one of each of the different branches' Season's Best recipe collections.

Someone (I think Chef Shalon) posted a link to the German PC Catalog recently, and the catalog included Woven Selections pieces in it.

I looked at Mexico, UK, and Germany. For the most part, we have the same stuff. They all still have the good Chef's Tools. I hope ours come back, I love those and can't bring myself to buy the less expensive Nyon Tools. They also seem to be about a season behind us. I'm not shocked we have slightly different products. Some of it I'm sure is due to warehousing, some of it to sales. Why keep a product in the US that doesn't sell when it sells in Mexico & Germany? It's fun to look and see the differences though.

Also, they may have limited amounts of some products available so they sell them in the smaller markets so they avoid backorders when possible.

While they are all under the PC umbrella, The Pampered Chef in the US is a different company than those in other countries so different people make the decisions on what to keep in the catalog.

That baker in the photo is the same square baker we sell.

I may have to see if my UK friend has a connection there so I can get a new slotted turner since my DH burned mine

I want the recipe for the dessert on the large round stone and then in their catalog is a cake on the pedestal...oh, and the strawberries covered in something!
