DiscThrowInferno inc -Northeastern Frisbee Supplier- By: Joe Rafalak & Arika Adams
Our Company We decided that our company would only distribute to the North East, this demographic has a high percent of College aged students aka more Frisbee players Also, the amount of money it would take to supply to a larger area would not generate enough revenue to be profitable.
Factories We will have a Factory Located in Boston, MA Out of production half of the Frisbees will stay in a warehouse in Boston and the other half will be moved to a holding location in New York, NY
Once in the Warehouse… DiscThrowInferno inc does not have a “store”, instead the company supplies wholesale to “Outdoor” and sports stores, such as EMS and Sports Authority We would also contract out to College Frisbee teams
