THINGS WE NEED
-
Looking for investors to expand this 85 year old business back to it's original distribution footprint. Started in the 1920's, this company processed and sold wieners and hit a consistent sales of 1.2 million a year through 1997 when it was sold and mismanaged for nearly a decade. We have reopened with the original recipes and restablished the brand through high quality craftmanship, local advertising and great word of mouth. Moving back into the wholesale business we have reconnected with most of the local outlets, and will be distributing into the 25 to 100 mile range around our shop. We have also established a yearly festival "WIENERFEST" and expect to have 20k plus attendees over three days this year. We have created an advertising campaign that includes radio spots, newspapers ads, jingles, songs and a full length movie shot each year at Wienerfest with professional actors from Hollywood.
