Reno Couple Opens Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More Franchise

Jeff and Andrea Pearson have been awarded Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More of Reno, Nevada, an independently owned and operated custom t-shirt and decorated apparel franchise business.

October 31, 2023 // Franchising.com // RENO, Nev. - Reno natives Jeff and Andrea Pearson have begun an exciting new journey of business ownership in their beloved hometown, with a Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More of Reno franchise. This marks a career milestone for the couple and is a “win” for the Reno community.

Raised in Incline Village on Lake Tahoe's north shore, Jeff Pearson was introduced to the hospitality industry at an early age, thanks to his family's bed-and-breakfast. This ignited a lifelong passion for service. With a Bachelor's in Hotel Administration from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, he went on to manage renowned resorts such as Hilton, Wyndham, and Diamond Resorts International. As Western Regional Director, he led operations across five resorts spanning from Colorado to Hawaii.

In 2023, he was ready for a change, and felt strongly about starting a business, working for himself, and building a legacy for his family. But he wasn’t exactly sure what to do or where to begin. That’s when he learned about the Big Frog franchise opportunity. He was impressed with Big Frog’s exceptional training.

“I have attended Hilton Worldwide University, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts General Manager Program, as well as Cornell University’s Professional Development Program,” said Jeff Pearson. “I must say that Big Frog University provided training on par with these outstanding programs. I know that our success will be forever enhanced by the experience.”

Andrea Pearson is a native of Reno and attended the University of Nevada. Prior to Big Frog, she was on the administrative team of the University of Nevada’s Athletics Department for 11 years. She then worked as Executive Assistant to the Director of Athletics for 16 years before moving to the School of Public Health as Executive Assistant to the Dean. She brings extensive administrative expertise to Big Frog of Reno and will manage marketing, promotions, merchandising, and a myriad of other details.

At Big Frog’s Meet the Team Day, upon signing their franchise agreement, she was amazed by the support from Big Frog’s headquarters team. “We are so honored and thrilled to officially be a part of the Big Frog Team!” said Andrea Pearson. “The support and encouragement we’ve received from everyone is so appreciated and has reinforced what we already knew was a great decision for us and our family.”

The Pearson’s passion for people, community engagement, and commitment to quality service make them ideally suited for the Big Frog franchise opportunity. In their spare time, they participate in the children's ministry at their local church. They also love to travel and went on a transformative, nine-day journey through the Holy Land of Israel in 2022. With three adult children, three grandchildren, and their two dogs, Kobe and Buddy, family is central in their life. The Big Frog business model provides them with that work-life balance.

Big Frog of Reno is located at 5057 South McCarran Blvd., Reno, NV 89502. They specialize in direct-to-garment printing (DTG), vinyl, embroidery, and more. Their talented design team provides high-quality, custom t-shirts, embroidered apparel and branded merchandise to schools and universities, clubs and associations, businesses and non-profits, and individuals throughout Reno.

The Pearson are excited about this new chapter in their lives, at Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More of Reno, in the heart of the “Biggest Little City.” They look forward to meeting the custom apparel needs of Reno’s residents and businesses. For more information, visit BIGFROG.COM/RENO.
