    About Wireless Toyz

    Founded in 1998, Wireless Toyz has become the most unique concept in the retail wireless industry. Unlike other retailers that carry only one or 2 carriers, Wireless Toyz decided to design and market a different kind of wireless store that would be dedicated to offering customers almost every cellular and satellite provider in one location. Customers love our one stop shopping locations as they're able to find the best provider to fit their personal and business needs. We've negotiated a non-exclusive contract with Nextel, Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, Dish Network, and Direct T.V. We also offer regional carriers such as Alltel, Einstein PCS, Cellular One, AirTel and 3 Rivers. Our concept has propelled Wireless Toyz to the front as one of the largest non-exclusive wireless retailers in the country. After opening our first location in 1998, less than twelve months later, Wireless Toyz had opened multiple locations throughout Michigan. In September 2001 Wireless Toyz began franchising to entrepreneurs who wanted to own their own store. By July 2003 Wireless Toyz began offering Master Franchise programs to companies who wanted to dominate a particular market.Wireless Toyz continues to develop a very unique and innovative structure for marketing cell phones and satellite TV. In the past, cellular phones could only be purchased from single Wireless Toyz stores or large chain stores.
    Wireless Toyz has created an ideal alternative, which focuses on: *Multiple carrier stores *Expert customer service *Knowledgeable Wireless Experts *Competitive pricing *The largest selection of cellular phones, satellite systems and accessories in the industry.Wireless Toyz caters to their customers through many innovative programs such as referral credits, volume purchase discounts, and much more. Wireless Toyz leads the retail cellular industry by putting the customer first. Wireless Toyz continues to prove that multi-carrier stores provide an incredible income and growth opportunity.
