Scottsdale’s TeaGschwendner becomes TeaTime In a refreshing change from small, independent shops being gobbled up by large chains, TeaGschwendner (the Goliath) is now TeaTime (the David).

The Old Town Scottsdale store, which opened in spring 2009 as a partner location to the Germany-based tea retailer franchise, has just been purchased by Scottsdale resident Dewey Schade.

Schade is a primary partner with other investors, yet the tea shop’s day-to-day operations will continue to be run by founding store manager and in-house tea expert Bob Williford.

“Over the past eight months, the national management team in Chicago changed, and the new team is putting an emphasis on opening franchise stores in major markets rather than pedestrian-friendly destination stores like ours in Scottsdale,” Williford said.
