At the centre of Downhome Publishing Inc., operator of ShopDownhome.com, is the desire to share with the world the best of everything Newfoundland and Labrador, and indeed Atlantic Canada, has to offer. From the scenery to the arts, from the people to their values, we celebrate what it means to live in and hail from the east coast.
Through ShopDownhome.com, (as well as our mail order service and our Downhome Shoppe and Gallery in St. John's), we carry the largest selection of Eastern Canadian products in the world. Downhome Publishing Inc. is not just a purveyor of these fine goods; we are also a producer. We have published three best-selling volumes of our Household Almanac and Cookbook. Downhome Memories, Salty’s Family Fun Book, Dictionary of Newfoundland and Labrador, Downhome Reflections, and the Gallery Cookbook are among our other fine titles. We’ve also produced several special recordings. So far, Downhome Presents CDs have included “Newfoundland Favourites” (vols. 1, 2 & 3), “Irish Favourites” (vols. 1 & 2), “Newfoundland Christmas” and “Newfoundland Instrumental.” These and all our other high-quality products – an inventory of more than 2,500 items – are supplied to specialty stores across Canada by Downhome Distribution.
Adding great savings to the ShopDownhome.com shopping experience is the VIP Club, open to all Downhome magazine subscription holders. Not only can subscribers use the membership card for valuable savings while shopping online, you may also flash your VIP Club card in other businesses that have signed on as partners, offering great discounts to card holders. As of 2009, the VIP Club has more than 100 business partners and more than 26,000 members – and those numbers are growing every day.
Downhome Publishing Inc. continues to grow, diversify and improve upon itself with an eye trained for opportunities on the horizon, doing whatever it takes to spread the word that downhome, life is better.
