Phantom Fireworks Showroom LLC

Phantom Fireworks Showroom LLC, commonly known as Phantom Fireworks, is a privately held company founded in 1977 by Bruce J. Zoldan. It operates under its parent entity, B.J. Alan Company. Headquartered in Youngstown, Ohio, Phantom Fireworks is a major retailer and wholesaler of consumer fireworks. While revenue and employee figures are not officially disclosed and vary across different business data providers, the company reports employing over 2,300 people nationally during its peak season.

As a leading U.S. consumer fireworks retailer, Phantom Fireworks imports, distributes, and sells a wide array of products. Its offerings include aerial repeaters, mortars, fountains, rockets, and sparklers sold under proprietary brands like Phantom® and Wolf Pack®, as well as products from other manufacturers. The company operates more than 80 permanent showrooms across 15 states and manages nearly 2,000 temporary sales venues, such as tents and stands, in 17 states during peak seasons. In addition to direct-to-consumer retail, its wholesale division supplies fireworks to national retail chains in most states where consumer fireworks sales are legal.

Phantom Fireworks' patent litigation history consists of defending its business operations. The company has been named as a defendant in one tracked patent case and has no record of initiating patent lawsuits as a plaintiff. This posture is consistent with that of an operating company being targeted by a patent assertion. The single case was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada.

The company's only tracked litigation is Titan International Technologies, LTD v. COBRA Firing Systems, LLC et al., filed in May 2024. In this case, Phantom Fireworks Showroom LLC is named as one of several co-defendants. This indicates the company is involved in litigation related to the products or systems it uses or sells in its operations.
