It’s been a long six months since we took our first order but now it all seems worth the effort. This weekend we installed our first screen doors. The first villa to be fitted was ours so we could make sure the team was trained correctly in the installation process and to ensure the product design was correct.
There could be worse places in the world for a training course!
Last week we headed off to Thailand to complete fabrication training at the screen manufacturers facility. Here the team learnt how to custom build each model of screen using the patented assembly process.
With the warehouse tenancy signed, two employees hired and our first shipment on its way, it was time to start working!
On Saturday we had our first full day together as the Safety Screens team. And like all great businesses it started with a vision and a first day. For us, that first day began with assembling chairs and tables! Not a glamorous start but was in the same vain as Steve Jobs starting out in his garage (not exactly but you get my point).Read More
Now that we’ve found a suitable warehouse it was time to start the paperwork.
We knew the chances of the administrative process going smoothly we’re low but our hopes were up. We had gone through a real estate agent to locate the property and we thought he may help guide through the paperwork. Once the agent had cashed his cheque there was little we could do to use him with the inevitable issues that would pop up.
Who would’ve thought that the local trading site Dubizzle would grow from a simple idea to the giant it now is in Dubai and across the Middle East. We never thought that it would be the place to advertise for staff but we have just placed a listing on Dubzzle to hire our first two employees.
