Santa Fe Springs, CA (October 16, 2017) – Scorpion Sports, Inc. is proud to announce a new business partnership with Western Power Sports (WPS) that will move all sales and distribution of new and current Scorpion Products to WPS as of October 16, 2017.
Over the past three years, Scorpion’s product line has been greatly improved and well received by the powersports marketplace. However the current deale- direct business model is not scalable to meet the expectations of dealers in the future. We undertook a two-year project to identify a business model to accelerate our growth and identified WPS to be the only distributor who fit the objective for Scorpion.
“Today’s market demands total excellence in product, value, design, brand and distribution. Having a great product is not enough,” Says Frank Esposito, President and COO of Scorpion Sports, Inc. “Customers want it quicker, accurately and at a fair price. This new alliance with WPS delivers on all of these categories.”
Scorpion and WPS share the same long-term vision. We are confident that all parties, especially our dealers and their customers, will benefit from this new structure. WPS has a track record of building and respecting brands they distribute. They focus on premium brands and use their experience, infrastructure and expertise to get the products to their customers quickly and consistently.
“Our vision is to deliver world class distribution for the best products in the marketplace. We were aware of the Scorpion brand, and when we examined the products, features, and competitive pricing, we were very impressed,” Shoemaker added. “They may be one of the hidden gems in the industry, and we feel we can help them grow into one of the industries market leaders in helmets and apparel.”
Scorpion will continue to create premium products for the power sports industry, and WPS will continue to distribute premium products to the dealers with world-class service and efficiency.
