| Rink Management
Our experience is unique. We understand the difficult economics of the rink business. It requires nimble, attentive management. We carry a sense of urgency to your facility and we instill it the employees. Outsource your rink management to IceWorld. We can take over your operation, hire the employees, and start you on the path to improved profitability.
The broad knowledge base to maximize the value of the ice arena business is difficult to attain. It requires the mechanical skill to run the plant, the customer touch required to run a retail entertainment business, an aggressive flexible schedule to ensure that the very expensive hours of ice time are sold, and good relationships with hockey clubs and other large groups that will become your core client base.
Mechanical Discipline: Your business requires you to run an artificial environment. Temperature, pressure, humidity, light, air quality all need to be effectively logged, monitored, and the equipment maintained in order to run your plant effectively. We have the experience and skill to adjust your routine in order to ensure a quality ice surface.
New Rink Construction: If you are just starting out, or upgrading your facility, we can review your equipment plans, make appropriate recommendations to help you avoid expensive mistakes.
Modernization: Frost heave damage, inefficient utility utilization, moisture problems, poor ice, ventilation issues. We have handled them all. We can work with you to help you overcome these issues, and upgrade your facility within your budget constraints with minimal downtime.
Improving Revenue: Perhaps your plant is in great shape. How is the top line? What ways does the existing management team grow the revenue of your facility? Are they simply repeating the same routine, year-over- year? You can be certain that costs will continue to rise, and unless your income grows more, you are not improving the profitability of your facility.
