KO-KA LUMP?

[leeherd]

OK Dennis. I can guarantee at least one customer for ya. I am stuck up here in the Northwest home of the over sized gas grill and Charcoal briquettes. Even Wallyworld does not carry lump up here. So Since I am going to have to mail order anyway. I would much rather send my business your way.

The Tamarind sounds very interesting.

Our WalMart doesn't have lump either, but I did find it at a WM Super Center down the road. I also have purchased BGE lump at an egg dealer (hardware store). You may not have Menards (lumber yard) but they carry Cowboy. You might check Lowes or Home Depot....

Gerard: I also agree with you on the name issue. It does not connote ..... cleanliness.

How about K2 Koal. Maybe someone could write a jingle "K2 Koal is number one."

Another packaging thought. Perhaps you could package a uniform sized extruded lump (I am obsessive compulsive about storage attributes of CEL) in a larger size (25 lbs) square plastic pail. The top would have to be seal-able waterproof for those of us who like to store stuff outdoors. I realize that there are ecological concerns with plastic, but the convenience (pet foods are an example) might out weigh that aspect. Maybe a rebate on sales to a renewable (name your favorite fuel source) tree.

The people you are selling to are a demanding, driven lot. Price will always be a factor, but it is not the largest determinant of a sale or no sale.

To paraphrase Barry Goldwater on this election day "Extremism in the pursuit of barbecue excellence is no vice"


Food for thought.

At the Ko-Ka , Ko-Ka Cabana
The hottest spot north of ...Surabya?

Meh...

Majestik: I stand corrected. Gerard's -ahem- excrement allusion is erased. Now I just need time to get Barry Manilow out of my head.

Hi Dennis,

Ok time to get my feet wet..but not the lump..

My guy has set up the meeting.. I'm going to inspect a factory that has tons of lump in stock. I told him that the smallest size I wanted was (asian) fist size. I'm also getting rates and going to send a trial container.

[Porkchop]

do i sense a "pallet of lump" splitting thread coming soon?

[samantha]

I think I know where we might locate some referrals!

[Curly]

Yeah, I believe there are about 6-7 containers as good as sold

[gerard]

I told him that the smallest size I wanted was (asian) fist size.

So if I put that in Google, I'm gonna get a bunch of charcoal sites?
