Watch on demand!

Outdoor companies continue to face multiple supply chain challenges stemming from the global shipping crisis, failed reinstatement of key federal trade programs, inflation, and lingering impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. With American outdoor recreation participation at an all-time high, our industry has been uniquely hard-pressed to find ways to overcome the uncertain market conditions in order to meet unprecedented consumer demand. This has been particularly true for small and medium-sized businesses which often lead the way in developing innovative new outdoor apparel, footwear, and equipment.
