SAN FRANCISCO – (Oct. 9, 2006) – Zephyr Real Estate is bringing branded fashion into functional, reusable tote bags as a service to clients and the environment. The new program is a positive way for Zephyr agents to show their thanks to clients by giving these useful bags as a gift, and to set the example as a green-minded real estate firm dedicated to saving resources. Zephyr Real Estate is the largest independent real estate firm in San Francisco.“We think the bags are a green gift and something homeowners will value,” said Randall Kostick, general manager at Zephyr. “These are a wonderful alternative to plastic and paper bags. Agents give these tote bags to clients in the hope they will use them for carrying groceries back to their newly purchased homes. Agents win, clients win and the Earth wins.”The black totes with white-screen printing of the specially designed Zephyr logo are similar to reusable bags you find at major natural foods grocery stores. Clients and agents alike will find the functionality of these limited-edition bags attractive. Plus, reusable bags save trees, protect resources and eliminate waste. Just another reason clients love working with Zephyr Real estate professionals.
