Young Entrepreneur – Zach Vruwink
Welcome back!
Zach Vruwink started his computer business at the age of 14.
He started helping family and friends with their technological needs. After about 8 months Zach realized that he was filling a niche and the community had a need for his services. On July 1st, 2003 Zach opened a retail store in downtown Wisconsin Rapids with only $500!
He operated under short hours of 3:00pm to 6:00pm during the school year and 10:30am to 6:00pm during the summer for 3 years.
After his 2006 graduation from high school, Zach decided to hire 2 employees to operate the store while he attended college at the University Wisconsin-Stevens Point. Kevin, the full time employee currently operates the store during the day and Calvin, a part-time employee operates in the afternoon.
