Prem Watsa on Kitchen Stuff Plus

Top New Stocks To Own For 2015

We also recently purchased a 55% interest in Kitchen Stuff Plus, a specialty kitchen and household supply and giftware retailer with 12 stores in the Toronto area. We welcome our new partners in this business, Mark Halpern and his customer-focused executive team, to the Fairfax family. Mark started the business with one booth at a local weekend flea market over 25 years ago. Today the business generates over Cdn$35 million in sales and over Cdn$1 million in free cash flow.
