The ancient Phoenicians were legendary merchants, often credited withthe first evidence of advertising and branding east of the Indus - not to mention the invention of the alphabet! On their iconic ships, they delivered stories and culture from every port they visited, along with in-demand goods to distant consumer markets.
Ken Atchity inherited that marketing spirit from his father’s Lebanese ancestors, and his philosophy today is represented by its convergence with the Cajun tradition of creative ingenuity from his mother’s side.
