Surfboard Company

Londonderry, Northern Ireland

UK surf business Skunkworks uses Futrli for short-term forecasting

Skunkworks Surf Co. came into fruition when Ricky Martin’s surf school, Alive Surf School in Portrush, Northern Ireland, was making a loss on their boards. The problem was the soft surfboards that beginners learn on are poor quality and don’t last long, so replacing them became the biggest expense for the school. After speaking to his peers, Ricky realised it was a global problem, so set about to change the way the boards are made, alongside his brother Chris. We caught up with them, and Office Manager and Bookkeeper, Samantha Quinn, to find out how joining up to Futrli has helped them combat the pressure of upfront costs, and how they’ve grown their company confidently.
