About  Paradise  Tan,  Inc.

Paradise  Tan  started  in 1994 with only one location and has grown into one of

States,  and  in  2003  as  one  of  the top 250 salons in the United States, by

Company  plans  to  become  the  first  nationwide  tanning  salon chain through
consolidation  and  franchising.  The  consolidation,  growth  and  brand  name
recognition  as  a  quality  salon  offering  a consistent tanning experience is
expected  to  result  in higher overall margins and create a barrier to entry in
the  tanning  salon  market.
