Revelyst Closing Illinois Distribution Center, Moves to Third-Party Logistics

Before Revelyst, the parent company of Camp Chef, was sold to an investment firm, they began efforts to reduce costs through their GEAR Up strategy. Implementation of this began even before high tariffs were announced, making this even more crucial than ever.

Revelyst grew through acquisition, and what often happens with that growth path is you realize some synergies out of low hanging fruit on the back office or revenue side, but more work is required to fully realize all the benefits. You often inherit buildings that aren’t optimized for a house of brands, a disparate supply chain, and other workstreams that take more work to consolidate.
