WE ARE OFTEN ASKED HOW URSA, INC. GOT STARTED. HERE'S THE TRUE STORY.
JIM:
I left town for an extended trip, leaving Janet in charge of my outdoor chores.
JANET:
I like working outdoors and don't mind doing a little extra work. But I was appalled by the inefficient and precarious nature of his tools. I thought, "There must be a better way."
JIM:
She couldn't push the wheelbarrow. And the sled and wood bag didn't carry enough to make her effort worthwhile.
JANET:
The kids couldn't help me either. They couldn't balance the wheelbarrow.
JIM:
When I got home, she was already using her first prototype. I was stunned that nobody had ever thought of it before. I was instantly impressed.
JANET:
I was so frustrated with his tools that I made my own. He liked it. And he helped me make it even better.
JIM:
We took her idea to engineers, designers and field testers across the nation.
JANET:
Our idea.
JIM:
Now we manufacture the revolutionary product you see today. The Ursa Wagon. Now there is a better way.
