Flowe is a native of Jacksonville, and has a career in sales and finance in the outdoor power equipment industry. His entrepreneurial journey began when he started exploring franchise opportunities and wanted to invest in a concept that could make a positive impact in this his home community. He first stumbled upon Play It Again Sports while in search of used golf clubs and recognized there was no similar concept available at the time in Jacksonville. Upon delving deeper into Winmark, Flowe recognized the brand provided an excellent franchising opportunity, due to Winmark's successful track record and the step-by-step process they have developed to ensure the success of its franchisees.

Brendan and his wife, Tien, also have three children and possess a profound understanding of the challenges involved in both starting a business and raising young children. He realized his desire to establish a business within his home community, offering people the opportunity to purchase high-quality used sporting equipment at affordable prices.

“I’m thrilled to bring our Play It Again Sports location to such a warm, welcoming, sports-oriented community like Jacksonville,” said Flowe. “I’m sure everyone will love the breadth of new and used merchandise we provide. I’m excited to open our doors for the families in the area, so that my new business promotes athletic participation and can support children’s activities, while saving local parents both time and money.”

Winmark’s resale concepts allow for quality used sports and fitness equipment to end up in someone else’s hands, rather than thrown into a landfill, providing a resource for shoppers who are looking to update their gear in a mindful environmental manner.

Unlike a typical consignment store, no appointment is necessary to sell sports and fitness equipment to Play It Again Sports. Plus, the store pays consumers on the spot for goods it purchases from them.
