Village Jewelry & Sports, Inc. also known as Village Sports is located in south Alabama. The company has been owned & operated by the same family since 1985. The brainchild of Larry & Jeannette Jimerson after building a home based business that took them all over the U.S. Larry formed Jimerson Cutlery in the early 1970's & became one of the largest cutlery distributors in the U.S. supplying knife & cutlery mailorder & storefront businesses across the nation. Jeanette accompanied her husband to gun, knife, flea markets & many craft shows introducing fine jewelry & diamonds to clients in areas that normally did not have it available. In 1985 the family opened the first location in an 1800sqft facility, by 1990 the business had outgrown the space and moved into a 10,000sqft location. After 10 years of growth additional property was purchased and in 1995 the 40,000sqft operation was finished. Today the business has one of the largest jewelry selections in the southeast boasting 38 cases of fine jewelry in addition to elegant gifts & collectibles. The hunting & fishing area has been a mainstay of the business since it's inception with 400 to 600 guns instock at any given time. Hunting in this area is a way of life and every item that could possibly be needed to hunt can be found in this one location. With the new structure complete a full-line sporting goods department was added with team sports, screenprinting, embroidery & awards enabling schools and leagues to fully furnish themselves with hard & soft goods. The archery department has grown to one of the largest and most respected shops that allow customers to test fire bows and fully service any and all archery needs comletely in-house.
