Joes Sports World
In the bustling streets of our city, amidst the roar of cheering crowds and the excitement of sports events, our journey began. It was April 2007 when my JSW decided to embark on a dream—to bring the highest quality of sportswear and sports memorabilia to the public. And so, Joe's Sports World was born.
We started small, as street vendors, setting up shop at university tailgates, parking lots, and any sports event that would have us. We believed in our vision, and we were determined to make it a reality.
Then, 17 years ago, our dream took a giant leap forward when Mercado La Paloma believed in us and provided us with the opportunity to open our own store. It was a momentous occasion—a chance to make a statement and to bring our vision to life.
Our kids grew up here along with our dream, but our journey was far from easy. We faced our fair share of struggles, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Like many small businesses, we were hit hard by the financial, and emotional implications of the crisis. In 2020, the store had no sales, which made us consider completely go out of business.
Now, in 2024, as we look back on our journey, we see the scars of our struggles—the financial, emotional, and physical scars of the pandemic and the current financial crisis. But we also see how far we've come and how much we've achieved.
Today, Joe's Sports World stands as a testament to the power of perseverance and the strength of family. We may still be healing from the wounds of the past, but we refuse to let them hold us back. We are moving forward, welcoming all new customers with open arms, and embracing the future with optimism and determination.
Our journey is far from over, but with the support of our loyal customers and the resilience of our team, we know that the best is yet to come.
