Customers of Martin Sports Apparel and PC Medic will be stopping at a new location thanks to a move by the two companies, which are owned by Scott Martin.
The companies, which have been based in Ishpeming since they were founded, are now located at the Country Village off of U.S. 41. They are located behind Blimpie Subs and next to the laundromat.
The reason for the move, says Martin, is simply logistics. Their former location, which was next to Meyer Yamaha, came with a massive showroom where Martin Sports Apparel showcased many of the styles of clothing available for customers. The problem was, they were almost always making sales through catalog orders and not off the showroom floor.
The new location still features a big display of shirts, hats and even football helmets that Martins Sports Apparel specializes in, but is smaller and far more cost-effective. Additionally, it gives Martin the chance to be more involved when customers come walking through the door.
PC Medic is also housed in the same building, though not a lot has changed for the company that has been fixing computers in Ishpeming and across the Upper Peninsula for more than a decade. Customers can still drop off their computers for quick repairs, and parts, custom builds and more are still available.
