We are your ONE stop shop for all of your promotion, custom apparel and award needs!
James Dillard started The Pasadena Trophy Shop at 115 South Shaver, Pasadena, Texas
With over 50 years of experience, we have evolved into Awards by Gulf Coast Trophies and Promotional Products; "Family Owned and Operated".
James Dillard has been gone since February 10, 2008. His son, Mark Dillard has taken the reins and is continuing to modernize and build up the business at his father's shop. With the help of his daughters, D'Lana Cruz and Taylor Gilcrease the trophy shop is continuing to move in the right direction with new equipment, modern designs and an up and coming internet presence.
Mark Dillard, son of James and Jean Dillard, is a life long resident of the Pasadena area. Mark attended Pasadena schools and graduated from Pasadena High School. His dad opened Gulf Coast Trophies in 1969 when Mark was just 7 years old. Mark grew up in the family business and in 2008, upon the passing of his dad, he took over as full owner of the company. He has taken the trophy business to new levels and has kept up with new technology. Now, Awards by Gulf Coast Trophies and Promotional Products is your "One Stop Shop". The company offers not only awards but apparel, embroidery, silk screening, Direct to Garment printing, printed materials, promotional products and so much more.
Mark has been married to his wife, Desiree, for 32 years. They have two daughters and son in laws, D'Lana and Joe Cruz and Taylor and Colby
This company and Mark will never disappoint you! From awards to cards to any promotional item this man will get the job done! Over the top customer service!
