Snow Peak Unveils First US Retail Store in Portland’s Pearl District
Portland, OR – February 28, 2012 – Snow Peak, the innovative outdoor lifestyle company, is proud to announce the official opening of its first US retail location, in downtown Portland. Located at 410 NW 14th Avenue, the store will open its doors on Friday March 1st.
In addition to Snow Peak’s high end camping gear, the Snow Peak Store will also carry a constantly evolving selection of brands that compliment an outdoor-inspired lifestyle.
“Our offerings will be frequently changing to keep the shopping experience fresh,” said Katie Kaiel, store manager, Snow Peak USA. “Like Snow Peak, all the brands featured in the new store share a unique approach to the outdoors and an elevated design aesthetic.
Attached to the offices of Snow Peak USA headquarters and warehouse, the new renovated 1500 square foot retail space features a clean, modern aesthetic synonymous with Snow Peak design, while maintaining the existing integrity of the building’s exposed brick and unfinished beams.
Embracing creative design to establish a multi-purpose space, the Snow Peak Store features display platforms that double as bench seating and an entire wall of hanging displays created from tent stakes and climbing rope.
“It was important that we be able to mix up the store set up. As we bring in new products or seasons change, we’ll be able to quickly change the displays with ease,” said Nate Borne, general manager, Snow Peak USA. “The Snow Peak Store will be a great addition to existing outdoor recreation shopping available in the Pearl District. It’s becoming a real destination for recreationalists and we’re excited to be a part of it.”
The Snow Peak Store will be open 10 am – 7 pm Monday through Saturday and 11 am – 6 pm on Sunday.
