ShopJimmy.com is a privately held e-commerce enterprise established in 2007 by Jimmy Vosika and headquartered in Burnsville, Minnesota. The company specializes in the worldwide distribution of television components to both commercial clients and individual consumers. ShopJimmy has been featured on the Inc. 5000 List from 2011 through 2015 and ranked #64 on Forbes' "America's Most Promising Companies," earning several industry honors.
Initially, founder Jimmy Vosika began by selling used flatscreen televisions on eBay but soon recognized greater potential in TV parts. He created a unique TV disassembly process that maximizes parts recovery, enabling almost complete recycling and significantly lowering electronic waste. In recognition of his entrepreneurial achievements, Vosika was awarded the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award for the Upper Midwest Distribution category in 2010.
Growth for ShopJimmy was fueled by strategic acquisitions, such as Illinois-based Discount TV Parts in 2012 and Minnesota's Ness Electronics in 2013. These moves expanded its reach in distributing DLP lamps, television components, and consumer electronics parts.
The company boasts an inventory surpassing 500,000 TV parts and also provides refurbished televisions, universal mounting stands, circuit boards, and repair services. ShopJimmy maintains ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications that demonstrate its commitment to quality assurance and environmental stewardship.
In 2014, ShopJimmy diversified by launching MN Home Outlet, a retail chain focused on home improvement products including discounted appliances, tools, and lawn and garden supplies. MN Home Outlet grew with new stores opening in Coon Rapids (2017) and Woodbury (2018), offering Minnesota customers discounts up to 90% below standard retail pricing.
