After watching a documentary featuring Victoria and Richard MacKenzie-Childs, we had a lot of questions.
So Stephanie went to Aurora, New York—the place where MacKenzie-Childs began—to learn more about the company's history and hear from people who were there. She spoke with current leadership, employees who worked with Victoria and Richard, and people who have been part of the MacKenzie-Childs story for decades.
In this video, Stephanie shares another perspective on the story surrounding the company's bankruptcy, ownership, and the question many viewers have been asking: Was MacKenzie-Childs stolen from its founders?
She also answers your questions about why MacKenzie-Childs products are so expensive, where products are made, whether Victoria was invited to continue working with the company, how the brand continues to honor its founders, whether the public can visit Aurora, and more.
Important Disclosure: MacKenzie-Childs did not ask us to make this video and did not pay us to share our opinions or conclusions. This video reflects Stephanie's personal experience, conversations, research, and perspective.
Our goal is not to tell you what to think, but to share another side of a complicated story—and the perspective we came away with after visiting Aurora.
