| What
is a Water Store? |
| The
Water Store of today is a full service retail outlet that offers local
customers pure drinking water and water related products. The Water
Store provides service and quality drinking water at a price much
less than delivered bottled water or bottled water that they purchase
in the grocery store. Water Stores also sell ice and various sizes
of water bottles, crocks, coolers and some even sell POU (Point of
Use) equipment for the household. Worldwide, we are seeing the Water
Store as it should be, as a mini water plant that provides needed
pure drinking water for the community. |
| Getting
Started |
| There
are many factors to consider when opening a successful Water Store.
We understand how important opening a business for the first time
is for people. WB USA works with our clients on a
personal one on one project basis. We advise you step by step what
to do to open your store and give you the training and continuing
support that you need. Many people call us asking "How do I get
started, or what's the next step?" |
| 1)
First you need to choose a location and go through the leasing process.
As in most business ventures remember, location, location, and location.
It is vital to your success. |
| 2)
When you sign your lease, you visit us at our facilities where you
will take a tour of existing Water Stores and get a chance to talk
to different owners about the business. At this time, you will consider
many different designs for your store. WB USA will
help you with a floor plan and give you step by step instructions
on what you need to do to get your store ready. |
| 3)
It is very important that when you sign your lease, you also order
your equipment. We believe that you can probably have your store opened
in four to six weeks. There are times when the business owner negotiates
free rent and it is important that you take advantage of this period
and get your doors opened as soon as possible. The lead-time on the
equipment will be four weeks. There are tenant improvements that need
to be done such as electrical, water lines and floor sinks along with
an equipment room, finished ceilings, flooring and walls.
WB USA gives you step by step instructions on what you need
to do. |
| 4)
Once you are ready for the equipment, we travel to your store and
do the installation and start up process for you. You do have the
option of saving money and installing the equipment yourself. We will
train you at our facilities on how to do the installation for free.
|
| 5)
WB USA will provide you with all the suppliers for
the bottles, crocks and coolers and help you work a deal to get the
best prices available for all your store merchandise. Advice on advertising
and marketing will also be given. |
| 6)
Water testing may be required by your local health officials. The
requirements vary from state to state and country to country. WB
USA will advise you during this process. |

Congratulations!!!!! You're ready to open the doors! |
