The Company is a development stage entity and its business activities are focused on developing a market for selling personalized children products and rebranding its name to “Maple Tree Kids”, for selling these personalized baby and toddler products and other products to customers through its new website that is currently under construction, mapletreekids.com. Its development stage activities include working with new vendors to bring to market more personalized baby products. The Company will be attracting customers to its websites by viral marketing, including placing advertisements and offering promotions on various baby weblogs or “blogs”, online journals that are updated frequently and postings to other online communities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in distributing personalized baby products through its Maple Tree Kids website into the retail market.
Sales of the Company’s products are made to retail consumers. The Company buys all of its products from various manufacturers located in the United States and all products are marketed and sold under these manufacturers’ trademarks.

Going Concern
From August 12, 2005 (inception) through December 31, 2013, the Company has generated $751,834 in cumulative revenues and has incurred a cumulative net income during that same period of $63,343. The Company generated a loss for the year ended December 31, 2013 of $9,149 and expects to generate losses in the near future, due to an anticipated increase in its general and administrative expenses due to the above mentioned development stage activities and not having sufficient cash to fund its operations. Therefore there is no assurance that future operations will result in any profit. If the Company cannot generate sufficient revenues to operate profitably, the Company may need to cease its operations. If the business operations expand, operating expenses will increase and the profit margins may not be able to cover this increase, and as a result the Company may not be able to develop into a profitable business in the future.
Management’s plans for the Company include raising additional capital through either debt or equity issuances. The Company has on file a Registration Statement with the SEC to raise additional equity funds through a public offering. Management estimates the minimum amount of additional funding necessary to enable the Company to carry out its intended business plan and remain viable for at least the twelve months following the date of the financial statements is approximately $100,000. However, no assurance can be given that management will be successful in its efforts. The failure to achieve these plans will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
