jordan brand’s world of flight x 14th & market

For the opening of Jordan Brand’s first World of Flight store in the states, they tapped 14th and Market, where I managed brand management, experiential strategy, and cross-team coordination to translate Jordan’s global legacy into a hyperlocal, culturally rooted launch. From OOH storytelling to community-first programming, the opening became a love letter to Philly’s creativity, sport, and soul.

  • Build the full experiential roadmap for the World of Flight store opening, including brand identity, community partnerships, event programming, and cultural storytelling.

  • Philadelphia’s creative and athletic ecosystems offered fertile ground to position World of Flight as more than a retail hub, it could become a cultural anchor.

  • To win in Philly, a brand has to show up through action, not aesthetics. Community wants access, involvement, and reciprocity.

  • Activate the launch through a layered, city-wide approach that honored both brand legacy and Philly culture:

    • OOH Marketing Campaign: Curated placements across key Philly neighborhoods to build anticipation, visibility, and hometown pride.

    • Commercial Production: Supported creative and production flows for a Jordan commercial that introduced the store’s presence with cinematic, Philly-forward storytelling.

    • Pre-Event Nonprofit Preview: Hosted a private opening experience in partnership with local organizations, including Fam Frequency and Jalen Hurts’ nonprofit, offering early access, giveaways, and intentional relationship-building.

    • Block Party Launch: Produced a full-scale outdoor celebration featuring live art installations, local vendors, hometown celebrity appearances and performances, and an interactive gaming tent designed for both youth and sneaker culture aficionados.

    This multi-pronged strategy connected Jordan Brand to Philly through story, service, and celebration, ensuring the store stepped into the city with authenticity and impact
