Since opening ASI in 1992 as their merchandise coordinator, it has been my pleasure helping people that wanted their own store begin the buying process. My goal is to make your store as specific to your wants and desires and as profitable as possible. New venues for merchandise come my way constantly and if I feel that enough of our stores could utilize them, I do my research, and then turn you on to them. At ASI we have never marked up the merchandise price. The price we get as a powerful purchasing group is passed on to you.
