These products are produced by our parent company Swyrich Corporation, in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, and are sold by Hall of Names licensees at locations of their choice. Each Hall of Names licensee is an independant owner of their own business. Founded in 1972, we started as a family business, and have grown to be truly international in scope. There has been some confusion as another company also uses the name Hall of Names. Our company is known as "Hall of Names by Swyrich", or "Hall of Names Marketing Inc." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q: Where do you get your information?
