Toby’s Sports

In the Philippines, basketball may be the favourite sport, but with hundreds of malls in Metro Manila, shopping arguably comes close. When it comes to retail stores, one name pops up across the board as the ultimate destination for sports equipment and apparel: Toby’s Sports.

Seeing an opportunity to sell skateboards after the holiday season, he eventually transformed his retail space into a sporting goods store that offered a wide array of sports apparel, equipment, and accessories. Its wide product assortment, international brands, modern ambience, knowledgeable and professional sales personnel set them apart from the traditional stores. Toby’s was clearly different and ahead of its time. Image Credit: Toby's Sports
