Joshuah Spartz, CEO of Racket & Jog Incorporated, embodies the spirit of a true community leader. His journey with the company began over a decade ago, starting as a part-time employee right out of high school. Driven by a passion for the business and a strong work ethic, he steadily climbed the ranks, eventually becoming a partner and then, just six months ago, CEO.
Spartz's leadership style is deeply rooted in building relationships and fostering a strong sense of community. He believes in empowering his employees, creating a culture of open communication, and prioritizing the needs of both staff and customers. Racket & Jog isn't just a shoe store, it's a hub for the community, a place where people can connect, find the perfect fit, and feel supported.
Racquet & Jog is known for its unique hybrid model, offering a wide selection of running shoes, walking shoes, and work shoes, along with a curated selection of apparel from brands like Patagonia, North Face, and Bad Birdie. Spartz's commitment to personalized service extends beyond simply selling shoes; he and his team strive to understand each customer's individual needs and provide expert advice. This dedication to customer service, combined with a genuine passion for the community, has propelled Racquet & Jog's growth, with new stores opening in Texas and plans for further expansion on the horizon.
