Tom launched premium sportwear brand Castore in 2015 with his brother Phil, aged just 25 and 22 respectively at the time. Tom and Phil were initially rejected by business investors as their first business plan didn’t seem to resonate as they talked about taking on the big players in the industry. They started with two personal loans and re-mortgaged their parents’ house, packing their first orders from their kitchen table. 2019 was a milestone year for Tom and his brother; Castore was announced as the official kit partner to tennis champion Andy Murray, who became a shareholder in the company, with the Beahon brothers being listed in Forbes 30 under 30 due to its growing success. By 2020, Castore had moved into elite professional football which saw them becoming the official kit supplier of Rangers. This close partnership happened organically as the club quickly fell in love with the products that Castore offered, showing there was a definite gap in the market and needs to fulfil. Further deals involving numerous football, Formula One, rugby and cricket clubs including England Cricket, Everton Football Club, Saracens, and McLaren and Red Bull Racing Formula One teams followed, with European football clubs including Sevilla in La Liga and recent Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen also partnering with Castore. Tom and Phil have been relentless in developing the company, recently raising £150m from investors including Raine Group in November 2023, helping to accelerate Castore’s expansion plans for the future. Prior to launching Castore, Tom spent three years at Lloyds Bank where he worked as an Associate Director in Acquisition Finance Origination. Outside of business, Tom was a professional youth football player for Tranmere from age 17-21, and spent time at Jerez Industrial in Spain. He attended the Glenn Hoddle Academy, having been raised in Bebington, Merseyside, by his science teacher mum, Anna and dad Steve who worked in construction.
