I traveled on a Christian Missionary trip to Peru and was taken by the beautiful and unique goods that were being hand made by indigenous people. I bought some of the items to help them out financially and brought them back to my home in Pensacola, Florida. The response was overwhelming! People were so taken with these unique goods that I ended 1986 with six trips to Peru.

As time wenton I began to wholesale larger amounts of goods and before long I opened my first retail store. Being a Christian and knowing that God had opened the doors for my trip and given me the ability to buy goods, my wife and I choose the name “Go Fish,” as in “A Fisher of Men.”
That was more than 16 years ago and we are still going and growing strong.

Our company now purchases goods from countries all around the world. We have established very meaningful relationships with families and individuals that are either under-employed or unemployed, and have been able to help them reach their own goals in life.

Furthermore, we have developed a large and loyal following of people in America who love the “Go Fish Clothing & Jewelry Co.” stores. I personally do all of the buying and travel to several countries. We have no agents, only friends.

Our first store opened in 1987 in Pensacola, Florida. Since that time there have been other locations opened in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina: and wherever we go, we hear the same thing, “We love your store.” With our customers coming from all around the country, in fact, from around the world, I know that Go Fish is a well thought of company with an impeccable reputation for quality, service, and integrity. It is with these thoughts that we have decided to expand the company and family of “Go Fish Clothing & Jewelry Co.”
