Harbour’s Managing Director Andrew Bascand and Senior Research Analyst Oyvinn Rimer travelled to Denver, Colorado for the Retail Outdoor conference.
Why did we attend the Outdoor Retailer Winter Market?
- The Outdoor Economy in the U.S. alone is 3x bigger than the entire GDP of New Zealand
- The Outdoor Economy is growing and is a source of global growth
- Trade war and tariffs are impacting on the Outdoor Economy directly
- Innovation and wide-spread demographic participation characterise this industry
- We are significantly invested in Kathmandu, which used the Outdoor Retailer Winter Market as a launchpad for its U.S. business
