Bread & Butter are not your typical brand. Doug and Brodie's story began when their parents, who met at an insurance adjuster's conference, got married, making the two stepbrothers. Despite an initial animosity that led to extreme pranks, they eventually bonded over shared interests, including a love for John Stamos and Better Homes & Gardens Magazine. They founded a tennis company, Tennis Worldwide, and quickly rose to prominence before a tragic accident forced them to shut it down. After feeling dejected, inspiration struck when their dog, Mrs. Pickles, stole their breakfast, leading them to pivot and create the Bread & Butter Pickleball Company, aiming to revolutionize the sport.
