Appliance & Kitchens
Atherton Appliance had a vision to bring online clientele access
to the world-class appliances and kitchen design services offered
at their store. The company recognized that the Internet was
a valuable way to extend communications and reach customers
seeking high quality modern appliances and culinary education.
The new website will give visitors a glimpse into the showroom
and cooking classes.
