Market Overview and Size
The size of the U.S. billiards products market was estimated at $235 million (at wholesale) in 1998, a 5% increase over 1997. The period of high growth for the billiards industry several years ago has given way to less, but stable, increases. During the past few years, this expansion has been fueled by greater media coverage from movies, TV commercials using a billiards setting, coverage of the Ladies Pro Tour on cable TV, interviews and articles with professional billiards stars, and the rapid growth of the upscale billiards parlors.
Manufacturing,
The manufacturing operation will start concurrently; with the development cycle when QUALITY CONTROL, ENGINEERING, and MANUFACTURING are designed to work hand and hand with the DEVELOPMENT of the products. This program will result in a value engineering design. It is expected that the processes, vendors, and tooling will be established by the time the products are released to manufacturing. This will result in compressing the manufacturing entry cycle and reducing product cost. Initially, specialty vendors will be used whenever possible and tooling expenses will be kept to a minimum. As the production volume increases and the cash flow position justifies it, more of the work will be brought In-House. In-House work will result in broadening our direct labor base, minimizing our dependence on outside vendors, and above all, increasing our profitability. Emphasis will be placed on quality assurance and materials management functions. The materials management function will be planned to ensure the company’s ability to deliver the required quantities on schedule and to have the ability to respond quickly to added requirements.
Production and Delivery
The key factors in the production of our products have to do with plastic injection molding tooling and dedicated extruded profiles. Currently, we use conventional machines, lathes, mills, saws, drills, etc. In the future, we anticipate needing at least 10,000 sq. ft of space, approximately 1000 sq. ft of office and showroom that is totally climate controlled.
Conclusion
J.W. Hager & Assoc enjoys an established track record of excellent service for our customers. Their expressions of satisfaction and encouragement are numerous, and we intend to continue our advances and growth in the CueSports marketplace with unique and effective products.
