Big Agnes hired the Horton Co. to handle its outdoor equipment sales in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas and Louisiana. The Horton Co., which is owned by Jerry and Lois Horton, will be managing the south central territory from their home base of New Braunfels, TX.
“We are excited to welcome both Jerry and Lois to the Big Agnes team,” says Garth Evans, Big Agnes’ Sales Manager. “They have over two decades of experience from retail, to manufacturing and sales. “We’re intensely passionate about who we are and what we do at Big Agnes. Jerry and Lois have that passion and drive coupled with a tremendous amount of experience.”
“Our knowledge of the Big Agnes brand and experience within the outdoor market will make this a smooth and exciting transition for us as we ramp up for Outdoor Retailer and beyond,” says partner Jerry Horton. The Horton Co. also represents Scarpa, Outdoor Research, GSI, McNett, Carve and Haiku.
