Thereafter, the company blossomed and provided the Haitian market with a
greater array of electrical and household necessities. Following the
imminent presence of other members of the family in the company, more
expansion and space became imperative for the survival of VCSA. Thus, H.
Canez with the support of her son R. Auguste, undertook the hard task of
building another store in Delmas 16 in the 1980’s. Shortly after, H. Canezs’
other children Rene-Max, Joel and Michaelle Auguste joined the company. With
their added support and capacities as well as the increase in demand of
furniture in Haiti, the company expanded yet again. Thus, R-M Auguste
initiated the sale of alternative energy such as inverters and generators
due to the growing need of electricity in Haiti. Moreover, in 2000 VCSA
built a state of the art showroom in Chateaublond for the sale of furniture
and household accessories. However, before doing so the company’s legal
status was changed from a sole proprietorship company to a corporation in
1984. Meanwhile, the demands for VCSAs’ products were rising at a fast pace;
therefore, VCSA started creating distributors within the country in order to
satisfy both their clientele and their increasing need of expansion. As the
company was making its mark in 2000 with their showroom of 50,000 square
feet in Chateaublond, the third generation of the family joined the
business. In 2006 one year short of VCSAs’ Seventy year anniversary, the
sudden death of R. Auguste our General manager affected both the Haitian
business and educational world, as well as his family.
Through the
awareness of its board for the satisfaction of its clients, VCSA managed to
become a leader in the sale of electrical materials and appliances by
employing a qualified labor force and by offering a competent maintenance
and delivery service for our goods.
