Take a familiar piece of Puerto Rico’s retail story onto the golf course with these Pitusa golf balls. Founded in 1976, Almacenes Pitusa expanded from its first store into a chain known for varied retail formats, including discount and department stores, supermarkets, and its Carolina Extra Warehouse. The company’s expansion and later transitions remain part of the island’s business history. These make a distinctive keepsake for Pitusa collectors, former shoppers, and golfers who appreciate a connection to Puerto Rico’s changing commercial landscape.
Founded in Puerto Rico in 1976, Almacenes Pitusa began when Israel Kopel opened its first store using a format that differed from the island’s traditional retail approach. The chain expanded through densely populated areas, adding supermarkets and discount stores. In 1984, it opened an Extra Warehouse in Carolina, a 46,000-square-foot store with parking for more than 400 cars; that year it also opened in Bayamón. By 1985, its twentieth branch had opened, and the company was planning further growth. Pitusa opened its first hypermarket in Levittown in 1989 and reported around 40 stores and 2,000 employees that year. In 2003, it announced new department store, supermarket, and National Lumber locations in Río Grande and Yabucoa. In 2011, Pitusa confirmed it was leaving the supermarket business. The following year, it consolidated its hardware operations under Metropolitan Lumber & Hardware, a company it had founded in 2009, and sold its 22-store Muebles y Enseres furniture business to Super Buy Furniture. Pitusa Muebles y Enseres filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2014. A few Pitusa-branded stores remained afterward, but they eventually closed or were rebranded.
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.
