WLM | business BELAY DESIGN: Two Brothers, One Hot Business By Lisa Doorn, Belay Design Images courtesy Belay Design I t has been a year of change, learning and growth for Drew and Grant Doorn, the brothers who set up their design shop, Belay Design on Grand Avenue in Laramie one year ago. The e-commerce businesses, Dead Drift Fly Fishing Apparel (DeadDriftFly. com) and Scrappers Hockey (ScrappersHockey.com) have seen sales double and then triple. The growth can be attributed to Drew returning to the business full-time, and Grant being able to have a dedicated office space to promote the website, print and ship the shirts. About Grant… Grant is a graduate of Bozeman High School and a full time student in the business school at the University of Wyoming. As he enters his senior year, his responsibilities at the Belay Design office continue to increase as well. 16 Wyoming Lifestyle Magazine | Summer 2015
