Jorge Barragan Email and Phone Number

My name is Jorge. I’m on a mission to get millions of people off the couch and onto pickleball courts.My company, The Picklr, is driving this revolution.We’re the fastest growing franchise in the country’s fastest growing sport. In just two years, we’ve scaled from a single location to a recognized national franchise with over 275 locations sold across 36 states.My unorthodox background prepared me for this.I learned to work hard and hustle from my father.He was a serial entrepreneur who had us working from a young age.Out of school, I worked sales jobs. → Apparel → Supplements → SaaS productsI was part of an IPO and two acquisitions.Those experiences taught me to scale revenue and build a brand strong enough to court investment and acquisitions.In 2016, some friends invited me to play pickleball and I saw an opportunity:There were young people playing!Fast forward to 2021, and I signed the lease on a giant warehouse and launched The Picklr.Our modern indoor facilities and cool, lifestyle brand was an immediate hit.We raised some capital and brought in a team of executives from F45, Tru Fusion, and Skullcandy to develop a franchisable product.We pioneered a monthly membership model that delivered recurring revenue.Our franchisees are seeing tremendous success (avg 38% return on their money) and the sport continues to grow.And I’m having the best time of my life!Pickleball has brought hundreds of thousands of people together in a healthy, fun way in this country.It’s just the beginning…
