Spring
2021
The idea for the company was born in the spring of 2021 when the number of disc golf enthusiasts exploded due to the pandemic. New discs were nowhere to be found, and buying used discs was slow, expensive, and risky. Additionally, the idea of starting our own business had been on our minds for a while.
We decided to create an online store where discs could be bought quickly, easily, and reliably. If nothing else, we thought we would at least learn something new. We established a limited company, built an online store, bought used discs, stored them in our parents' garage, and started working.
And that’s how DiscKing was born.
Summer
2021
Our parents' garage quickly became too small, and we started looking for a small office space. We found a suitable place fairly quickly, and at the beginning of July, we moved into a roughly 20m² office cubicle in Kaarina's Krossi area.
Winter
2022
In January 2022, we found a space where it would be possible to open a brick-and-mortar store. We negotiated a bank loan, renovated the space, and in March, we were able to open our first physical store. The approximately 100m² store was located in the basement of Autoliike Palomäki in Kaarina's Piispanristi. In addition to used discs, the selection included new disc golf discs and accessories.
Autumn
2022
During the summer, we realized that our space was too small. The small office space, in particular, was problematic and almost always looked like this.
We started looking for new premises, and by chance, our current landlord had just vacated a roughly 500m² retail/warehouse space right next to our store. We went to see the space and realized it would be perfect for our business. In addition to building a large brick-and-mortar store, we could create functional office and storage spaces, as well as one of our long-term dreams: an indoor disc golf training center.
We negotiated the financing and began renovations once again. In October 2022, we were able to open our new store and Finland's first indoor training center.
