Business Startup

[John Albee]

Of course the biggest problem to this is procuring a large warehouse.  I
could have virtual setup with all the products in 2 weeks.  Also, online
would not be that bad considering some of the stuff in the loads are factory
certified items that have been check by the company and re sent out.
