Park City, UT – Park City’s RAMP Sports has begun development and production on three separate OEM orders for the upcoming 2013-14 winter season, illustrating the adaptability of the ski and snowboard manufacturer’s production methods, as well as highlighting the return of certain ski manufacturing to the U.S.
“OEM production has always been part of our strategy,” said Mike Kilchenstein, a former Rossignol executive and the Founder and “CESnow” of RAMP Sports. “With our new machinery and efficient production process, it has finally become a reality. Our goal for the ‘13/’14 season was to do 15% of our production in OEM and we’ve met that goal. We are really excited it includes export business with very big growth potential on a state of the art ultralight alpine touring ski.”
With this season’s orders already in place, RAMP has already seen a great deal of interest from several national and international brands for winter 2014-15, attracted to their state-of-the-art facility, quality product and industry leading environmental practices, Kilchenstein says.
