MESA, Ariz. – Dixon Golf CEO William Carey announced today that Dixon Golf, manufacturers of the world’s first high performance, 100 percent eco-friendly golf ball, is partnering with Arrive Golf Group to help solicit and manage Dixon Golf sales efforts at off course accounts.
All golf balls manufactured by Dixon Golf are “green” to the core, using all reprocessable materials to create a golf ball that is 100% recyclable. Not only has Dixon Golf created a fully recyclable golf ball, it has developed a recycling program to back that up. Any golf ball brought to a Dixon Golf retail outlet or golf course will be good for a $1 credit toward the purchase of any new Dixon Earth golf balls. Those balls will then be recycled to make new products such as field turf and playground equipment.
Additionally, as part of the recycling program, people can exchange any brand of ball for $.50 per ball, also good toward the purchase of Dixon Earth golf balls. These balls will be used to research effective ways to recycle all golf balls.
“Dixon Golf saw tremendous growth in 2009, and with this new partnership with Arrive Golf Group, we expect to exceed that growth in 2010,” Carey said.
With ample knowledge of the sports retail industry, Arrive Golf Group will be tasked with growing Dixon Golf market share in the golf ball market by increasing the number of retailers that carry Dixon Golf products.
“Dixon Golf balls offer the high level of performance consumers demand, and that is where their story begins. The golf community has grown more environmentally conscious. What Dixon Golf is doing for the environment will not only improve communities, it will help grow the game,” said Dwight Hansen, President and CEO of Arrive Golf Group.
