Wireless Toyz today will significantly broaden its national reach, connecting with thousands more wireless consumers across Florida through the acquisition of Tampa, Florida- based Beepers ‘N Phones of America Inc. The new alignment solidifies Wireless Toyz as one of the top multi-carrier wireless retailers nationwide. Specific terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
In 2007, a total of 33 Beepers ‘N Phones locations in south and central Florida will convert to Wireless Toyz locations: 20 in Tampa, 11 in Orlando and two in West Palm Beach will be added to the current 18 locations Wireless Toys has in Florida. Wireless Toyz was founded and is headquartered in Michigan with 48 store locations. This deal will bring the nationwide store count to more than 200 stores operating in 21 states solidifying their position as one of the nation’s leading multi-carrier wireless retailers.
“Florida is a growing market and we’re excited to expand our presence in the state,” said Joe Barbat, Wireless Toyz founder and chief executive officer. “This acquisition further solidifies Wireless Toyz’ reputation as the place to purchase wireless products and it presents extensive opportunities for franchisees interested in working in the $170 billion plus wireless industry.
