In what I believe is a new record, 45 total companies from Utah are exhibiting at Outdoor Retailer Summer Market this year.

To the best of my recollection, the most number of Utah companies to ever exhibit at OR in previous years was less than 30. So if my memory serves me correctly, this year’s turnout of Utah-based companies exhibiting at OR Summer Market marks a BIG jump from past years.

Shown below is a list of all the Utah-based companies that are exhibiting at Outdoor Retailer Summer Market 2008. [NOTE: Companies are listed in alphabetical order, followed by booth number at OR-SM, city where each is located, their Web address (unless none is available), and a brief description of the products/services offered.]
