About Us
Dryvebox comes from humble beginnings – sheets and wood frames in a garage, a prototype trailer dragged down to the local muni, and a guy with the golf bug. In 2020, Adeel Yang, Dryvebox’s cofounder and CEO, needed to solve a problem: he was addicted to golf, the pandemic had halted outdoor golf, and there was no room in his San Francisco flat for an indoor build. So, he came up with the idea for an expandable golf trailer. While dreaming up the idea was easy, building a golf-able trailer was not. After many rounds of trial and error, his vision became a reality.
As it turns out, other people really wanted to play in that box. That led Adeel, an entrepreneur with a 2 for 2 record of prior successful businesses, to turn this personal golf project into a business. He recruited others to help him build the company, and in the few short years since, Dryvebox has grown to 10 units spread across the nation, thousands of golfers experiencing the box, and a solid start on our mission of cultivating golf everywhere.

People Love Us!
I am a HUGE fan of Dryvebox — it is literally changing the game. I grew up playing junior golf in Hong Kong, and saw first-hand how so many kids don’t have access to the sport in a dense city. With Dryvebox’s technology, mobility, and tight footprint, the sky’s the limit in terms of the incredible impact they will have.

I surprised my husband with this in our driveway for his birthday; it was a total hit! We had a bunch of friends over to enjoy it with us. It was such a blast. Highly recommend it! Everything was perfect. Look forward to using you again in the future.
– Courtney, Charleston
It was great to have the Dryvebox golf simulator at our outdoor Homecoming Dance. It was a fun option for our students to have during the event and they enjoyed the hole in one competition. . . . Students with ranging skill sets enjoyed it very much and we will have Dryvebox at future school events!

-
Phase 1: Introduction to Dryvebox
We’ll go through the Dryvebox franchise opportunity including expectations, details on the business, available locations, costs, and timelines. In this step you’ll also get the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD). You can then review the FDD and determine what you want to follow up on and learn in Step 2.
-
Phase 2: Get to know each other
This is an opportunity for both of us to learn about each other more, make sure we’re aligned, get you more exposure to us and the product, and better understand how you plan to run the business. This is also when you will select your territory.
-
Phase 3: Become a Franchisee
After we’re all comfortable with each other, you’ll sign the Franchise Agreement, pay the franchise fee and other initial fees, and get your box ordered.
-
Phase 4: Onboarding and launch prep
We walk you through training and orientation, giving you what you need to launch, run your business, and join us in cultivating golf everywhere. In this step, you’ll also receive your trailer, start initial marketing and sales, and get your home base set up.

Phase 5: Launch!
Get the word out, have a series of launch events, and kick off your business!
