OGIO International, the designer of golf bags, apparel and accessories,
reports its golf sales revenue grew 48 percent in 2012. As evidenced by
the strong activity in the OGIO booth during the 2013 PGA Merchandise
Show in Orlando, Fla., future order backlog grew by 68 percent thus far
in 2013.
The company's focus on providing designer label fashions in its golf bag and apparel collections has been the catalyst for this rapid growth
trend that began three years ago.
"OGIO saw another extremely
strong year in 2012, "said Tony Palma, CEO, OGIO International. "The
growth of our brand presence in the U.S., Europe, Asia and Australia is
sparked by our new fashion-forward styles and innovative products.
Consumers have been very receptive to our focus of bringing runway
styles to the fairway in both our golf bag and apparel collections."
Sales
growth in 2012 was driven by OGIO's newly launched apparel collections
and its premier line up of golf bags. Its award-winning golf bag
collections, which include unique innovations specially engineered by
OGIO, is led by the Chamber golf bag with its Silencer Club Protection System. Another OGIO innovation is its SHOXX X4 Suspension System, which
consists of two integrated, adjustable elastomeric straps that absorb
the downward pull from the weight of the golf bag. This technology is
included on multiple bags, including the Recoil, Grom XX, Ozone XX, and
Hauler.
In addition, OGIO's limited edition fashion designs have
also contributed to a rise in sales. The company's new apparel
collection received immediate acceptance in the top 100 premium golf
shops including Pebble Beach, Doral, Kapalua, Baltusrol and many other
destination golf courses. Fashion-forward pro golfers Aaron Baddeley and
Ben Kohles are wearing OGIO's fashions in PGA play this season.
OGIO
also launched its newest innovation, the X4 Synergy Sport Cart, which
provides the ability to fold and unfold the cart with a golf bag
attached in less than three seconds. This allows for combined storage of
the golf bag and cart, reducing the amount of space needed in the trunk
of a car or garage by 30 percent.
