Okay so I have got some interest going here in Kelowna but now I am wondering what I should do if a retailer decides they would like to start selling!

What kind of suggestions or resources could I give them when it comes to buying kendamas at a store level?

KE was started out of a need for a place to buy kendamas easily - we imported and sold 50 Shin Fujis, then 96 Ozoras to our friends. With the small amount of profit we made we bought prizes and held competitions, this worked pretty well to build a large base of players - though most of them only occasionally play. Thats the DIY sorta option.

If you have retail shops interested in carrying kendamas then a good place to start would be to give them kendamaUSA's info - they're a pretty big wholesaler that are carried in a lot of shops across N America. PM me if you need their contact info!
