[edit] History
While still at Liverpool University, Robert Williams and Jason Tavaria used their credit cards and £1,500 of their own money to set up a company that would sell musical equipment by mail order and over the internet. Today Dolphin Music sells products from 300 different suppliers; in 2004 the company added sales through eBay and in 2005 opened a shop in Liverpool specialising in rare guitar from suppliers like Gibson, Fender, and Rickenbacker.
Sales have grown 176% a year from £267,000 in 2003 to £5.6m in 2006.[1][2]
