For most people, starting a business is a process that requires years of planning and intensive market analysis. For Christopher Radko, now the head of a company that bears his name, developing a multi-million dollar business in Christmas home furnishings was literally an accident. Christopher, who at age 39 is celebrating fifteen years in business, designs and produces a brilliant line of fine glass Christmas ornaments, garlands andfigures depicting everything from the very traditional to the very whimsical. His designs inspire joy and awaken the spiritual significance of the holiday, and, best of all, serve as special momentos of a family's holiday celebrations. |
