About the Business
Being able to provide our local community with a different array of products & services.
Our loyal customers are very supportive of this small business and love the service they receive.We are very busy during the spring and summer months when customers are more inclined to go camping, fishing and do watersports.
In our winter months our customers are more inclined to go hunting and shooting with a few still camping. We also supply most of our sporting clubs and other local associations with trophies and awards throughout the different seasons.
The products that we sell are good quality and well-known brands that people know and trust. We also have a Lazer Engraving machine which allows us to provide customers with personalized gifts and awards as well as trophies.
There is minor competition with other businesses in our town that have a small branch of camping equipment for sale but specialize in a different area. We provide good customer service and back up support that satisfies our loyal customers.
