Description: PlumParty, the one-stop site with high quality products/service solves the needs of the timid entertainer & pros with inspiring ideas and efficiency. PlumParty has the platform to change the fragmented $10 billion party supplies industry. Over half of industry sales are through mom-and-pop retailers (limited selection/service/expertise) and the other half through big-box retailers (unsophisticated selection and limited service). PlumParty’s founders have identified multiple opportunities due to this fragmentation and have positioned the Company to quickly capitalize on the market’s weaknesses
