Our Journey
Dorothy and Ray Allison's entrepreneurial journey began in 1984 when they owned a small shop in Friendswood to sell paper and janitorial supplies. As the business grew, they expanded their offerings to include party supplies and moonwalk rentals. In 1992, they purchased a plot of land off of 528 RD and built Bay Area Wholesale. Dorothy and Ray's dedication and hard work helped the business thrive and expand over the years, and by 1996 they we're doing business as The Party Store, which became a beloved destination for party planning. Despite the passing of Dorothy in 2013, her husband has continued to manage The Party Store.
In April 2024 the retail side of the business closed down. Nevertheless, the store still offers rentals and remains committed to providing the best possible service to its clients.
Thank you to all of our customers over the many years!
