About us
Dedrick and I met in 1994 through the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program – and
we instantly bonded. I myself benefited from the program, having had a Big Brother
myself when I was younger. We’d often spend our time just hanging out, joking
and laughing, and talking about life and its infinite possibilities.
As time passed, Dedrick grew up and moved out of state to attend college.
As we each started moving down our own paths, him enjoying the newly found college
life, and myself starting an eco-conscious clothing line, we lost touch. A few
years later I ran into his mother at a community event, and as they say, ‘the
rest is history’. His mother called him right there on the spot and we went back
and forth for what seemed like hours filling each other in on missed happenings,
re-establishing the missed connection. By now, come to find out, Dedrick was
playing professional football and had completed his college education with a
BA in Business. Unfortunately after 3 years in the NFL, Dedrick was injured and
was forced to sit out the 2007 season. He decided at that point to move back
to California from Philadelphia since he was unsure of his football future. That’s
where it all began.
We met one day for dinner, and since I’ve been both involved and interested
in the green movement for a while, we started discussing the available options
regarding electric forms of transportation. Following dinner, and months of research,
we began to visualize opening a retail store - not wholly committed to any one
manufacturer - but instead, committed to carrying only the highest rated products
available. We pooled our resources, created a business plan and began ordering
our first products within a month and a half of our research phase.
So here we are, together
again, committed to doing for you what we’ve managed to do for each other - create
long lasting relationships built on trust. This, coupled with our unmatched product
line, has set us apart from our competition. As you can probably gather from
the aforementioned, we’ve been there for each other - now we want to be there
for you….
