Description:
Heavy Machine is an emerging women’s designer shoe brand looking for expansion capital. Our first season S/S 2010 sold 250 pairs of shoes to retailers in New York, Taiwan, and Amsterdam. In our second season S/S 2011, we sold out of our inventory (over 600 pairs) and have a running wait list. Currently, 15 retailers around the world carry Heavy Machine shoes, but another 5 stores are on wait lists.
We need expansion capital for PR branding, marketing strategy, offices, showrooms, tradeshows, and most crucially -- larger inventories for the upcoming S/S 2012 season.
