oilfield clothing (Minot, Williston, Watford City: stores, safety, oil)

[merchpaul]

I'm thinking of having a mobile oilfield clothing store selling fireproof clothing and safety equipment for oilfield workers in the north dakota oilfields any ideas from folks already there

The market is pretty saturated for FR equipment. In 2008-10, it would have gone over well. Now, there are at least 3 stores in Williston, Watford City, Dickenson, Minot, Tioga that sell FR so it is not tough to find. You may want to look into the FR cleaning business as I do not know of a dry cleaner in the area that has a cleaning service specifically for the oil rigs where they go to the job site to pick up/drop off clean clothing. Those services exist in more populated areas.
