The Ball Depot launches as a single-category e-commerce store selling over 1,000 ball products across sports, fitness, and pet toys

Vancouver entrepreneur Terri-lyne Gedanitz launched The Ball Depot, an e-commerce store dedicated exclusively to balls, consolidating a category typically spread across dozens of different retailers into a single destination. The store opened April 7 with more than 1,000 products spanning sports, kids, fitness, novelty, and pet categories, shipping to both Canada and the United States. Gedanitz, who comes from a background in film and creative development, said she had the concept in mind for more than 15 years before bringing it to market.
