You guys are trying to take on Staples office Max Office Depot in a heavily heavily saturated market.
How do you gonna do this.
-- crazy right well first -- with thanks for having me on.
But we are thinking about the brand we saw a huge gap.
It was a designed GAAP in the online or in the office supply market space nobody was catering to women in particular.
These -- most fashion conscious people there trend setters and they're being largely ignored by the big box guys.
And so when my partner Chris was -- is envisioning and how we can go and address this market I came out of from another angle and so -- let me take a look and see how big that market is.
When we saw was a 300 billion dollar market.
And that the three big boys Staples office Max and Office Depot made up the top ten upon line e-commerce company as we said there's a huge opportunity here.
So you say women but check it out this is for kids and I think guys wouldn't mind a little color in their offices look at these state -- but almost every product that you guys have.
Comes -- a choice of ten different colors -- tell me about that.
If so we we start with that what we call the pop and -- Starts with a ten basic colors.

In general and we can show some of these two because you also do office furniture and and among the things that you do again in a Pallet of ten colors.
Is this office chair and this is far less expensive than some of the very fancy ones that are really expensive but again a -- would -- the green one but.
That come in all different colors exactly.
-- far less expensive.
Much more functional we believe but the most amazing thing is it's the end tag Kia.
All the furniture we -- has no tools required you by the deaths from -- that snaps open and four seconds three year old could do this.
Because of the market that we're going after they don't wanna sit there with a little -- -- -- together their furniture.
I'm so -- -- -- as furniture it's -- with the customer in mind which is somebody who wants just pull out of the box and go and not sit there with a little.
Allen -- well we have Fox Business loving entrepreneurial spirit we love went a little guy comes -- and we've been in that position coming in behind the big boys and taking -- -- David vs the life it's good to have yes thank you know the first person calling them.
