GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Add a regional history touch to your golf collection with these Jitney Jungle golf balls. The grocery name traces back to Jackson, where the Holman brothers and William Bonner McCarty opened the first Jitney Jungle on East Capitol Street in 1919. Built around a cash-and-carry approach, the business grew across Mississippi and neighboring states, becoming part of the area’s everyday shopping landscape. Its later story included Jr. Food Mart and a series of corporate changes. A memorable pick for golfers and collectors drawn to Mississippi brands and local history.
Jitney Jungle began with a grocery store founded in Jackson, Mississippi, in 1912 by brothers Judson McCarty Holman and William Henry Holman and their cousin William Bonner McCarty. After experimenting with a cash-and-carry approach, the founders opened the first Jitney Jungle on East Capitol Street in Jackson on April 19, 1919. They patented the concept in 1920 and successfully defended it in a lawsuit brought by Piggly Wiggly. The chain grew across Mississippi and neighboring states, eventually reaching Florida. In 1965, it joined Topco, a cooperative purchasing association. By 1973, the company had 38 grocery stores, six gasoline stations, and five drugstores; by 1992, it had more than 100 stores. Its convenience-store subsidiary, Jr. Food Mart, was formed in the 1960s. In the mid-1990s, the family sold Jitney Jungle to investment firm Bruckmann, Rosser, Sherrill & Co. The company’s 1997 acquisition of Delchamps contributed to its debt problems. Winn-Dixie acquired both chains in 2000 and rebranded the stores. In 2005, Winn-Dixie closed many locations, including most former Jitney Jungle stores in Mississippi.
Get your audience in the zone with these personalized golf balls. Available in budget-friendly six packs, these golf balls are made with 100% surlyn. Your artwork, photos, or names go on all six balls, in vivid detail and color.
