In Chester County, PA (where QVC’s Studio Park is located) the County Conference and Visitors Bureau wants local lawmakers to know a few figures before the state cuts its funding again — namesly that tourists spend $546 million annually in the county, representing direct employment of 7,106 people who make $151 million in wages. “One of the county’s top attractions is QVC Studio Park in West Goshen, which entertains about 100,000 visitors a year. Marlene Robinson, general manager of QVC, manages a staff of 50 people who handle tours at QVC. In the first four months of 2010, which included the double-blizzard February, there were visitors to QVC from 46 of the 50 states. During their stay, they booked 9,000 room nights at four Chester County hotels surveyed by Robinson.” The Mercury (Pottstown, PA) Jun. 10, 2010

What a racket! QVC charges, presumably, some of its most devoted fans $75 for a 3-hour, “All-Access Tour” that includes lunch in the company’s commissary and glimpses into conference rooms. (Not kidding.) Also available for people who are not insane is a quickie tour for $7.50. Philadelphia Enquirer Jan. 22, 2010
