Community FAQs
Why should I invest in a MX community membership?
MX has a well established program for the development of the sport of cricket in the community. We bring a combination of quality at affordable prices and along with this we promote funding of the sport through our generous packages for the community.
Why should I choose an MX community membership?
The success and strength from a community membership comes from the brand's experience in the industry. Matrix Sports (MX) has more than 7-decades of experience manufacturing cricket gear. We've learned what works through the years, and you benefit from that knowledge. We are also able to provide ongoing support services from industry professionals, and we offer continuing development opportunities for personal and professional growth.
What are some of the ingredients to MX’s success?
We focus on the customers’ needs – there is nothing more important than the customers’ needs. This is why we start the fulfilment process once our customer places an order.
What sets MX apart from the competition?
We offer our customers, and our community true value – excellent quality and an even more excellent price. Value for money is not the only ingredient to our success. We offer a high degree of customisation, direct to customer philosophy – we limit the number of intermediaries between the end customer and the factory, we focus our attention on building a community of cricket players – whether professional or recreational, and above all we support the community through our schools program where we subsidise the cost of kit required by the schools.
Does MX provide consultation and business training?
Yes! We provide a comprehensive training program that focuses on all aspects of the business. The curriculum includes product manufacture, marketing, finance, cash management, human resources, multi-site supervision, customer service, loss prevention, and real estate, among other topics. We also continue to work with you as your business grows, providing expert analysis and consultation to help you succeed. Our team of experts and our consulting partners bring their in-depth knowledge of retail, franchising and manufacturing to make your business more profitable.
How affordable is a MX community membership?
MX remains very competitive relating to start up and operating costs. Because of our focus on community building, we do not insist on any minimum investment. You need just enough to ensure we meet our costs of setting up Your community membership. Our commercial terms ensure we maintain the most up-to-date infrastructure for all our community membership.
How much does it cost to become a MX community member?
The estimated initial investment required per store location ranges from approximately £500 to £1,000 for a standard MX location. Of course, costs vary based on a variety of factors. As part of our consultation process we assist you in determining the investment required in the country where you wish to set up an MX community membership.
If I don't have experience in the retail industry, can I still be a MX community membership?
Yes. Prior retail experience is desirable – it ensures that operating costs are kept to the minimum and risk of leakage is kept to the minimum. MX offers a comprehensive training program, covering all aspects of operating a store. You will also have access to operations and marketing professionals as you establish your business.
