Worldwide Sporting Goods Corporate History

Worldwide Sporting Goods was founded by John Moore, Sr and his son John Moore II in downtown Philadelphia, PA in 1956. Excellent word-of-mouth and reasonable prices helped propel this family-owned business from that small location to a larger facility also located in downtown Philadelphia in 1962.

In 1964, the senior Mr. Moore retired, leaving John Moore II as the sole owner. Since that time, Worldwide Sporting Goods has become one of the nation's premier sporting-good concerns and continues to offer a full line of top-quality athletic merchandise. The next year should be an especially exciting one for Worldwide Sporting Goods as we look to expand in Singapore and the Philippines.
