Businesses come and go. Markets change. So yeah- a thread about firework sellers that have gone the way of the dodo.

I remember a shop in Lancaster called Lawsons- "The Rocking Horse Shop." Most notable was its old fashioned sign outside- a rocking horse. In the 80s they used to sell British Standard rockets, price codes by letters and numbers. Like an " A or a 1 " firework would be 30p, a " B or a 2 " firework would be 40p etc.

A good, old fashioned system- the value of each was clear.

You actually bought the rocket head, and they gave you a seperate stick that you fitted yourself!

The business closed down a few years ago. It was actually a toy shop, which did seasonal fireworks.

I think we should make new of our product time to time(Example:different effects,shape....etc) ,and the most import step is quality. it is said that quality is life of enterprise.
so no matter what we are big or small enterprise,we must keep the quality
