Description

There’s a forest fire blazing through our industry right now. While destructive, forest fires bring new growth and a healthy environment. In this episode, Josh Weichhand, Vice President of Global Brand Marketing at Rumpl, talks about this inflection point and the changes happening in the outdoor industry.   Takeaways   Inflection points in the outdoor industry are disruptive but can lead to positive change and growth. The industry has faced challenges due to the pandemic, inventory saturation, and the entry of fashion brands. Brand differentiation and values are becoming increasingly important in a crowded market. Challenger brands may face challenges but also have opportunities to make their mark in the industry. The outdoor industry faces challenges in operating and accessing supply chains, especially during uncertain times. Consolidation and shakeups are happening among big players in the industry, leading to potential changes in the landscape. Brands need to make strategic decisions and consider their growth plans, taking into account market conditions and consumer demand. Focus and discipline are crucial for brand development, allowing brands to cater to their core consumers and create meaningful products.
