About

S D Trading Co #5 at 1111 Orange Avenue is the newest Coronado Island storefront for the California lifestyle brand, opened in 2022 inside the same historic 1910 building that houses neighboring beach-gear retailers on this block of the Coronado shopping corridor. Part of the same 1995-founded brand operating five San Diego County locations and multiple Coronado storefronts, this unit stocks the full range of proprietary screen-printed tees, zip-up hoodies, embroidered headwear, and Coronado-branded resort wear developed by the company's in-house design team. The surf-and-skyline graphics that define the product line overlap with the board-sport aesthetic at Emerald City Surf Shop down the block, though S D Trading Co differentiates on original garment design rather than imported novelty goods. Tourists arriving from Hotel Del Coronado and Coronado Hotels use the shop for last-day souvenir runs, with a product mix spanning magnets, stickers, and postcards alongside the higher-end apparel line that sets it apart from standard gift shops. The 1111 Orange Avenue address sits three blocks north of Hotel Del Coronado in the 92118 ZIP, on the stretch of Orange Avenue between Coronado Beach access points and the independent bookshop at Bay Books Coronado farther up the Coronado shopping district. Coronado Ferry Landing visitors and Coronado Island residents exploring things to do in Coronado California find the custom apparel program uses water-based ink printing on ring-spun cotton blanks, producing graphics that hold color through repeated salt-air exposure and machine washing.
