02 Flip Flop Shops - Brian Curin
Jeff and Christine talk with Brian Curin (Size 10), President and Co-founder of Flip Flop Shops Franchising, in his role, he oversees franchise development, brand direction and buying. Flip Flop Shops is the authentic retailer of the hottest brands and latest styles of flip flops and sandals. It's more than just a shop...it's a lifestyle. This is how the story goes.......Founder, Todd Giatrelis (Size 11) and Co-Founder & Trainer, Sarah Towne (Size 9), headed to a convention in Vegas. Sarah was wearing uncomfortable shoes. Sarah NEEDS a pair of flip flops. Sarah searches far and wide through Vegas but can't find a pair of flip flops to save her life. She asks the question, why is there not a shop that simply sells flip flops! Why oh Why? So there begins the quest to open Flip Flop Shops. A $20 billion dollar industry, Flip Flop Shops fills a gap in the flip flop industry. Connect the dots on this great concept, and Brian's multi-faceted business and personal lifestyle that spans Chicago to Guatemala, and cigars to flip flops.)
