The Shocking Truth behind Forged DST....
--------FORGED DISTRIBUTING Press Release-------
September 17, 2009- The road back to being considered a reputable wheel company for Forged Distributing has not been an easy path. The company which is owned by Alain Bandomo has had to change the course that it was on when it was formally known as 360 Forged. “The company in April of 2009 had a backorder of over 130 sets of wheels and not a dollar in the bank to reflect on how it was going to have all those orders fulfilled” says Bandomo. Since the acquisition of 360 Forged, Forged DST has fulfilled every last order and has managed to save the brand from becoming extinct. The business has moved to a smaller, more reasonably sized location with a little less bling. It’s definitely a more efficient use of space and money says Ralph Carreno, Wholesale Director for Forged DST. The company is now dealing with the reality that because of the previous owner’s greed and lack of business ethics, that getting back to where they once were is not going to be an easy task. “We are not interested in driving flashy cars or showing off fancy watches, we simply want to deliver the best product on the market, no questions asked” says Emilio Mayer, Sales & Marketing. Another problem that they were dealing with was certain shops all over the U.S. selling bootleg product that was being provided by machine shops that cut for them previously. “Everyone was trying to cash in on the great design work that our guys had created. It’s frustrating to see others trying to profit on someone else’s hard work” says Bryttany Anerine, Customer Service. Currently there are over 20 designs that the company offers between their three lines. They also have several other new styles in the developmental stages that are scheduled to be released in the next few months. Adversity is definitely something that this company is dealing with. They are taking responsibility for previous short comings. The last few months there has been uncertainty regarding who owns what or who is associated with whom. One thing that can be guaranteed is that Forged Distributing will not hide behind any other company names or disguise who actually owns or is running the company. The company invites all questions and inquiries and would love to hear feedback from all enthusiasts. –Forged Distributing 305.255.5166
