In this episode, we dive into the incredible story of how Tom and Phil Beahon, two brothers from Liverpool, built a billion-dollar sportswear company, Castore, from their parents' kitchen table.

Faced with the disappointments of failed football and cricket careers, they pivoted to a relentless pursuit in the sportswear industry.

This in-depth discussion reveals their humble beginnings, significant partnerships including signing Andy Murray, expanding to partner with elite teams across various sports, and their unique strategies in the highly competitive market.
