Of course there is brand new merchandise on display across the show, but that is not the only reason why the conference exists. Panels on a number of important issues related to nature are being held over the course of the three-day expo.

HOW SUSTAINABILITY STOLE THE SHOW AT OUTDOOR RETAILER WINTER MARKET
Outdoor Retailer Vice President and Show Director Marisa Nicholson expressed enthusiasm regarding the show’s projected attendance numbers and exciting new exhibits at this year’s Winter Market Show.
“Outdoor Retailer Winter Market is the third of three shows this year in Denver, and it wraps up a very successful first year in the city. Right now, as this show is about to begin, the ratio of retailers to brands attending is approximately 10 to one and stores are bringing, on average, five buyers per store,” Nicholson said before the show.
The outdoor retail market is an $887+ billion industry according to the conference and event organizers added new elements to this year’s show to increase exposure.
“Don’t do as I do, run with someone else… bring mace… have fluids… Bring a small first aid kit… don’tbe a jerk, don’t go alone… feel empowered and not scared… and bring a four legged friend” #ORShow #WeAreOutdoors #OutdoorRetailer #WomenEmpowerment #womenoutdoors pic.twitter.com/Otdyww5E4B
