PROUD
TO SAY, "MADE IN THE USA!"
"Toys are our business and our business
is fun!" This just isn't a clever slogan at Kerrigan Toys- it is the
essence of the operational philosophy, which is product driven. The
importance of marketing is recognized, but marketing is used to support
innovative products rather than drive mediocre ones.
Kerrigan Toys uses U.S. manufacturing sources for printing and production
of our toys. All components are made in the U.S. except when sources
for these components can not be located within the U.S.
The Beginning: LOSING IS FUN??!
During one period of unemployment, stress
was causing pain in Tom Kerrigan's chest, which terrorized him, worrying
that it was health related, perhaps even a heart attack. This was
proven to be wrong after he invited friends over to test his new creation-
a board game called LAUGH TRAXtm. The laughter poured out
of everyone, providing positive verification of its play value. And
without realizing it, all of this laughter eliminated the tension
that was causing his chest pain. "After playing LAUGH TRAXtm
the first time, it was as if the sky had opened up and the sun beamed
down", he would later tell a reporter. His mission seemed set and
he concentrated his efforts on his innovative game that's FUN to lose!
And with this, Kerrigan Toys was born. Production of LAUGH TRAXtm
was initiated and regional sales began. Several TV features and print
stories on LAUGH TRAXtm soon followed with positive consumer
response. Development efforts of additional toys continued.
FOCUSSED ON FUNsm
As sales for LAUGH TRAXtm continue to
increase, Kerrigan Toys has expanded its design library to numerous
toys from various categories, many of which are now in development
and testing stages. Rather than be category specific, Kerrigan Toys
pursues a good product concept as long as it is innovative and has
high play value. This is the toy's first measuring stick- fun! "If
we create something that consumers will have fun with and enjoy, it
is, by definition, a toy!", remarked Kerrigan.
GOOD WILL
The company has maintained a focus on
philanthropy that is proportional to its ability to give. Maintaining
high community involvement, the company has given toys to charity,
school fundraisers, church auctions, and toy Christmas drives for
disadvantaged children. Kerrigan Toys has been happy to work with
the local office of the Muscular Dystrophy Association, giving out
copies of LAUGH TRAX at their Christmas party. It was with joyous
surprise that kids came up and asked for autographs on their game.
That kind of satisfaction is priceless.
THE FUTURE- OUR MISSION
With a tremendous inventory of products
from all categories, the company's mission is to rejuvenate a lethargic
toyland with new and next generation product lines. Inquiries from
retailers of all size are welcomed. Investor inquiry is also welcomed.
