Thayyilsports was founded in 2011 by Rasheed T with a simple but powerful vision - to create a trusted sports store for the local community. In its early years, Thayyilsports quickly earned a good name through honest service and quality products.

But life happens.

Due to personal commitments, the business was later given out on lease. Unfortunately, during this phase, poor management slowly damaged the brand’s reputation - something that had taken years to build.

By 2021, we made a tough but important decision:

to take Thayyilsports back and rebuild it from the ground up.

It wasn’t easy. Trust doesn’t return overnight. The store needed more than just repairs — it needed a complete transformation. In 2022, we redesigned the entire shop, improved product quality, refined our approach, and officially relaunched Thayyilsports in August 2022. Growth was slow, the challenges were real, and every small win mattered.

While rebuilding Thayyilsports, another chapter began.

In September 2023, TR APPARELS was launched as a wholesale brand focused on activewear, track pants, shorts, and sports apparel. Despite strong intent, the wholesale market brought unexpected challenges, and the plan didn’t work as expected.

Instead of giving up, we adapted.

We decided to restart - this time by going directly to the customers, online.

We began selling jerseys on a very small scale - just 70 jerseys a month. No big campaigns. No shortcuts. Just consistency.

Daily product uploads, Regular reels, Learning, improving, and showing up every single day.

Then came the turning point.

One reel - a Germany Beckenbauer jersey - went viral.

Overnight, everything changed. Orders poured in. Followers grew. And most importantly, customer trust started building organically.

From 70 jerseys a month, we grew to 10,000+ jerseys shipped every month, fulfilling 5,000+ orders across India. With this growth, we restarted our own production and moved fully into a direct-to-consumer model under TR APPARELS.

Today, TR APPARELS is the parent company, and Thayyilsports stands proudly as its sister brand. Together, we focus on what truly matters - quality sportswear, honest pricing, and reliable service, both online and offline.

This journey wasn’t built on overnight success.

It was built on failures, learning, consistency, and trust. We’re still growing. Still improving. And deeply grateful to everyone who believed in us — especially when we were just starting again.
