ITEM 2.           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                  CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                  The following  discussion  and analysis  provides  information
         which   management   believes  is  relevant   to  an   assessment   and
         understanding  of the  Company's  results of  operations  and financial
         condition.  This  discussion  should  be read in  conjunction  with the
         financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.

a.   Results of Operations

                  Sales for the six months  ended June 30, 1998 were  $4,712,128
         as compared to sales of  $5,635,837  for the six months  ended June 30,
         1997.  Sales for the  quarter  ended June 30, 1998 were  $2,488,413  as
         compared to sales of  $3,755,798  for the quarter  ended June 30, 1997.
         The cost of goods  sold as a  percentage  of  sales  for the six  month
         period in 1998  period was 92% as  compared  to 87% for the  comparable
         1997  period.  The increase in cost of goods sold,  as a percentage  of
         sales for the six  months  ended June 30,  1998,  is due  primarily  to
         discounting which the Company needed to maintain to be competitive both
         on an intrabrand and interbrand brand basis with other wholesalers.

                  Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six month
         period  ended June 30, 1998 were  $863,913 as compared to $741,020  for
         the respective 1997 period.  The increase in the six month period ended
         June 30, 1998 is due to the hiring of sales and shipping  personnel for
         the upcoming busy season,  fees with respect to being a public  company
         and increases in employee benefits and payroll taxes.

                  Interest  expense for the six month period ended June 30, 1998
         was $29,436 as compared to $53,960 for the respective 1997 period.  The
         decrease  in the six month  period  ended  June 30,  1998 is due to the
         reduction of debt.  Interest  income of $62,376  resulted from interest
         earned  on cash  proceeds  received  from the  public  offering  of the
         Company's stock.

b.   Liquidity and Capital Resources

                  Cash  used in  operations  for the first  quarter  of 1998 was
         $374,808.  The increase in prepaid expenses of $170,906 and inventories
         of $266,729  was offset by a $358,740  decrease in accounts  receivable
         and a $74,684 increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

                  Working capital decreased from $3,706,851 at December 31, 1997
         to  $3,113,246  at June 30,  1998 as a result of the cash  required  in
         operating activities.

                  At June 30, 1998, the Company's  primary  sources of liquidity
         were $2,436,060 in cash, $496,732 in accounts  receivable,  $693,019 in
         inventories, and $180,454 in prepaid and other expenses.

                  Management  believes  it has  sufficient  sources  of  working
         capital to adequately meet the Company's needs through the end of 1998.

c.       Year 2000

                  The Company  recognizes  that a challenging  problem exists in
         that many  computer  systems  worldwide do not have the  capability  of
         recognizing   the  year   2000  or  the  years   thereafter.   No  easy
         technological  "quick  fix" has yet been  developed  for this  problem.
         While the issue is not of  significance  for the Company because of its
         minimal  reliance  on  computers,  this  "Year 2000  Computer  Problem"
         creates  risk  for the  Company  from  unforeseen  problems  in its own
         computer  systems and from third  parties with whom the Company  deals.
         Such failures of third parties'  computer systems could have a material
         adverse  effect on the Company and its ability to conduct its  business
         in the future.
