Last Wednesday along with the Deputy Premier, Andrew Fraser, I had the pleasure of visiting a local Molendinar business called Your Inspiration at Home to share a tasty plate and hear about the start-up company that is exploding on to the direct marketing scene. Your Inspiration at Home Pty Ltd is a great local success story, having achieved more than $1 million in sales since starting up only 16 months ago. Your Inspiration at Home is a locally owned direct sales company that provides gourmet foods and innovative Kitchenware to add a dash of inspiration to the menus of beginner cooks and dedicated foodies alike.
