NOC Outfitter's Store Finalist for Retailer of the Year


The 2010 SNEWS® / Backpacker Retailer of the Year awards were presented at Outdoor Retailer Winter Market during an after-show gathering at the Red Door on Jan. 21. The Outfitter's Store was a finalist for the SNEWS/Backpacker Magazine Retailer of the Year Awards. NOC made the final 15 out of over 250 nominations. Nominations for next year's award will begin soon, please keep an eye here to help us win next year.

How did they narrow the field? In March 2009, SNEWS and Backpacker magazine put out a call for nominations seeking the best retailers in the United States. The responses poured in, with hundreds of votes coming in from reps, retailers themselves (naturally) and customers. As was the case in 2009, the best nomination forms came from customers who typically praised the retailers and shared stories of excellent customer service as each lobbied passionately for their choice for best retailer. Over 100 stores received nominations.
