Winterstick has expanded its Freeport, Maine headquarters in a new location. The expansion marks a significant growth step for the company, now occupying a 5,000 square foot space that brings a distribution warehouse, factory store, and increased office space under one roof.

Winterstick headquarters and that of its holding company, Bigelow Mountain Partners, is now located at 291 US Route 1 in Freeport, Maine, 04032.

“Bigelow Mountain Partners’ new distribution and office facility represents a big step for the business,” said Chris Lorenz, Winterstick’s owner and CEO. “Having the warehouse under the same roof as our offices allows us to directly maintain and control inventory and quality. It increases our efficiency in delivery and distribution. Most importantly, our entire crew is under one roof, which allows them to benefit from the energy being created by our growth.”

The 2005 season has returned strong increases of forty five percent, with Winterstick distributed in twice as many specialty retailers than in 2004. “The new location and additional space will accommodate Winterstick’s future according to our growth projections, as well as Bigelow Mountain Partner’s future business strategy as a brand portfolio management company,” added Lorenz.
