I have two companies: Blinds & More is a drapery retail store and LuXout is a drapery manufacturing company. The former has been around since 2007 and the latter has been around in some form since the 1940s but was incorporated in the 70s. I've acquired them both and one other small business that added to LuXout's manufacturing in the last 3 and a half years. So far it's worked out. I want to see what else is out there.
