Bray Whaler's Thanksgiving Thoughts
11/22/11 16:55
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
As we approach Thanksgiving our hearts are filled with gratitude. November marks the anniversary of our 25th year in business and we could not have done it without trusted relationships with true hospitality professionals like you.
In the beginning it was just Ronnie and me (working with dot matrix printers and 1980's hair-dos). Today, we are blessed with a dynamic team, amazing technology, and fantastic, long term professional relationships. Thanks to our clients' trust and referrals, we have purchased more than $2 billion of FF&E and OS&E for over 600 projects in nearly every state, and in 10 countries.
Our mission is to make purchasing a worry free process for you. We value the role you give us when creating beautiful, profitable hotels. So, for the next 25 years, we will continue to steadfastly guard your budget and schedule, while maintaining the quality and integrity of your design.
Many of you have asked us to share current tips and project highlights, so in the coming weeks you will be hearing from us. In the meantime, we hope you enjoy the beauty of this fall season and accept our appreciation for the opportunity to serve you.
Kind regards,
Elisa Whaler
President and CEO

BrayWhaler International Opening Office in Dallas TX
On January 1st 2010 , Bray Whaler International opened a new office in Dallas, Texas. With nearly 25 years in the procurement industry, the choice to expand the company is in response to increased demand to service the Southern US region. The Bray Whaler team welcomes all to join in celebrating their expansion with a Grand Opening gathering in the new Dallas office on February 18th from 4pm till 7pm.
Based in Centennial, Colorado, Bray Whaler has historically provided procurement services for the hospitality industry, but in recent years, has expanded its offerings to include purchasing for a wide variety of market sectors including: corporate, government, sports venues, healthcare, higher education and gaming.
"We look at today’s’ economy as an opportunity to re-position ourselves”. Elisa Whaler, owner of Bray Whaler, said in a statement. “Keeping our eye on the market, we’ve been able to continually enhance our offerings to suit the clients’ needs. We’ve accomplished this in part by expanding our team to include project managers who are LEED accredited, and /or hold degrees in interior design, construction management and finance. This exemplifies how our team brings a more diverse skill set to each project” Elisa added.
With over 1.6 billion dollars in combined purchases since 1986, and over 65 completed projects in Texas alone, BrayWhaler is positioned for the upcoming movement of new builds and renovations scheduled within the next 36 months. One such project, The Dallas Convention Center Hotel, was recently awarded to Bray Whaler International. The new complex broke ground September 15th, with a multi million dollar budget. The project boasts 1,000+ guestrooms and suites and 100,000 sq ft of public space area, and is slated to open early 2012,

International highlights include Emaar’s Marassi Beach Club in Alexandria Egypt, the Royal Park Nikko in Yokahama Japan, Sandy Lane Hotel on the shores of Barbados’ and the Gansevoort in Turks and Caicos.
While the company’s success is broad based, they maintain focus on their mission to become an integral part of their clients’ team by identifying needs early in the process, and providing a “do what it takes” mentality to provide the high level of service each client deserves.
