Fifth Town Wins National Design Award!
Fifth Town Artisan Cheese Factory has won the Staff Choice Design Exchange Award. The awards were announced on November 25, 2008 at a gala dinner held on the historic Trading Floor at the Design Exchange (DX), Canada s design museum. Established in 1991, the Design Exchange Awards are the only Canadian multi-disciplinary design competition to judge designers work on commercial effectiveness. Presented by Canadian Business Magazine, the Awards support the DXs mandate to foster business and public understanding of the impact of design excellence on the economy and businesses.
