can any one help? I'm trying to find i dive. they did have an office on the ring road between tesco and makro but when I went the other day the shop was stripped and it looks like they have moved,

I also visited petcherat marina in Bangrak where they formerly had a shop/office but same same nothing inside.

Shut down apparently. Don't have any details though, sorry.

They had only been in that shophouse maybe 3 months . They marketing everywhere, maybe they just overspent

I heard they closed (nearly) all offices, to reduce expenses. I think they are still operating, as I just saw a new flyer being dropped on the bar in a cafe in Bophut, last Wednesday. Best to find a brochure and give 'm a call... ps. Have you tried Google?

Good luck!

they moved to cut cots, the new office will be in bangrak in a house.

That was one quick bubble to burst, couldn't see a tree or hill in samui due the to iDive banners everywhere the other month, definitely OTT.

Strong rumours but no hard proof - finished.

The boat was taken back by the owner - rent not paid. (Said the owner - Petcherat)

Immigration gave them a big fine - no work permits.

Sad to see any business fail, although there are probably some dive shops that won't be too upset.

Phase 1-Decide to enter a highly saturated and locally biased market just prior to the lowest of low seasons.

Phase 2-Over commit and over spend on recurring fixed costs, ignoring local labor laws in the process.

Phase 3-Profit?

Having read the full page advatorial in the Samui express the other week I presume that world domination has also been put on hold ?

From world domination to a bungalow in bangrak in a few quick months

The advertising budget must have been huge judging by the amount of posters, flyers and ads in every printed material on the island as well. Somebody has some explaining to do I would imagine
