Hello friends,
As we steadily gain momentum, our story continues to be written. With it unfolding, we want to take you behind the scenes of our operation, show you what we are working on, and offer you insights along our journey.
Today, we are excited to launch our newsletter to take you In the Box with Dryvebox!
Just in this past month alone, you saw us…
⛳ Significantly expand our franchise program
⛳ Activate at multiple PGA TOUR events
⛳ Go on a road show with a TGL team
⛳ Lay down roots in Canada
…and much, more more!
Our past month was so busy our major announcement last week bumped the debut of our newsletter back a week!
⛳ ICYMI: We announced an expansion from one to 11 franchises nationwide. Just six months after we began franchising, we are teetering on a dozen franchises covering Connecticut, Florida, California and numerous spots in between. Details on all 10 new franchises, including contact information, can be found on our blog.
⛳ We were easy to find in Arizona for the WM Phoenix Open (enjoy the sights and sounds). Not one, not two, but three mobile golf simulators drove to Arizona to collaborate with the likes of Bad Birdie, lululemon and Los Angeles Golf Club. More and more repeat clients are giving us confidence that respected brands love the experiential activations Dryvebox provides.
⛳ Los Angeles Golf Club of TGL hit the road in a Dryvebox simulator for its “Freeways to Fairways Roadtrip” with our very own Jake Hutt along for the ride. The LA-based Box drove up to Pebble Beach and back, with several stops in between. Check out the highlights of both Day 1 and Day 2!
⛳ No longer does Dryvebox only have home bases in the United States of America. We recently delivered our first-ever Canadian mobile golf simulator. For more information on our Box in Kelowna, click the link!
⛳ Our Charleston, SC-based Box enjoyed hosting several recent events with COBRA Puma, one of our frequent collaborators. Our presence all across the country – and now into Canada – means we can provide turn-key golf activations everywhere (and we mean everywhere).
What started three years ago has now become an annual tradition at the Genesis Invitational. Once more this February, we partnered with Genesis to roll our mobile golf simulator experience right into the 14th Lounge, an open-to-the-public hospitality space with everything you could ever want, for the tournament.
We were smack-dab in the middle of the event. Spectators throughout the weekend packed the Box as we hosted a closest-to-the-pin challenge complete with prizes that included a chance to win 2025 Genesis Invitational tickets. The energy was palpable, and the shots were on point.
If you didn’t catch the quick recap from our very own Jake Hutt, you will want to – take a look!
Next week, we will pull into Frisco, Texas – where we just launched a franchise – to take part in the inaugural Golfweek Tech Lab. With great prizes on the line, we will meet with key industry stakeholders and the investment community as part of a curated group of startups aiming to impact the business of golf.
With such a big month in the books, we were thrilled to see Dryvebox in the news so often!
Perfect Putt, a must-read newsletter breaking down the business side of golf, referenced Dryvebox's recent growth in its latest edition detailing the indoor golf boom.
Both Colorado AvidGolfer and the Denver Business Journal wrote about our entry into Denver. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette covered us opening a franchise in the Steel City. The Jacksonville Business Journal wrote about the new franchise in town.
Hypebeast highlighted our closest-to-the-pin activation when explaining why the Genesis Invitational felt bigger than ever this year.
Co-Founders Adeel Yang and Jake Hutt hopped on the Golfing Dads Tavern show to bring them up to date on everything going on in the Dryvebox world.
