South Park Los Angeles

An officious technocrat was discussing business with my team and I recently and he announced with aplomb: “Of course vertical integration is dead in the L.A.

No it’s not:  The South Park Development Group (A Forbes Company) has assembeled a workshop and the beginnings of custom shop for Martin Motors (much more on that later-too close to the button-too big to discuss-a vision whose heart beats bravely, and is too special in relation to my father and the revival of our ties to South East Asia, and the rebirth of my families’ moniker: Forbes)- An upholsterer, a fine cabinetry maker, a painter,a furniture maker, and, possibly, a trimmer-with all their combined equipment, skills, honor, and excellence.

When? Next week, the week after, and the week after-all together in one location fulfilling a common goal: upgrading vehicles that Forbes retails and wholesales under the banner of Martin Motors. Further, providing the community those same services-under one umbrella-bannered under Forbes.

In South Park L.A, for South Park L.A: The South Park Work Shop. One boat-many rowers, skilled, driving against the winds of  convention, against the foes of full employment, better days in L.A, a better, safer, happier downtown L.A.

Tell a man and his team with a vision who collectively have lion-hearts what they cannot do, fueled by a legacy that must never be torn asunder-Forbes’ legacy,and, see for yourself what can be done.

Vertical integration in South Park L.A-in Down Town L.A: Better days, better ways-renewed manufacturing, and-yes-a vertically integrated company.

I’d like the ‘NO’ men to keep their collective opinions to themselves-they are, as individuals and collectively, the destroyers of all that is good and great in man: The will to win through.

“The glory of a next Augustan age
Of a power leading from its strength and pride,
Of young ambition eager to be tried,
Firm in our free beliefs without dismay…”
