Success Stories
Courtsmith Basketball Industries
Courtsmith Basketball Industries is a national basketball apparel and accessory store headquartered in Oakland, CA. Founded by Courtney Smith in September 2014, the company has grown from its start selling one t-shirt at a time to selling a range of products including backpacks, hoodies, and hats to players, coaches, fans, and teams of all levels. In addition to traditional apparel, the company makes specialized basketball uniforms for local high schools and community colleges.
As Courtsmith has been growing, Courtney has needed more funding to purchase inventory to meet their expanding orders, but couldn’t secure it from a traditional bank. Pacific Community Ventures stepped in, and we’re excited to help the team! We’ve been proud to partner with Courtsmith as they’ve grown to meet their expanding demand!
