Sierra Trading Post

Owner Keith Richardson founded Sierra Trading Post in 1986 in Reno, Nev. The company purchases name-brand overstocks and closeouts and passes savings on to its customers, selling dress, casual and outdoor clothing, footwear, home furnishings, accessories, and gear at savings of 35 to70 percent.

Today the company has three retail stores in Reno, Nev., Cheyenne and Cody, Wyo., and two customer service call centers also located in Cheyenne and Cody. Construction of a 284,000 square-foot fulfillment center was recently completed on 40 acres in Cheyenne.

Sierra Trading Post's shipping department moves 5,500 to 7,500 orders daily. The majority of orders are shipped within 24 hours.

The company currently works with more than 700 vendors who look to Sierra Trading Post first when they have closeouts to sell. Among vendors are Columbia, The North Face, Kelty, Merrell, Rockport, Carhartt, Ex Officio, Sportif USA, Patagonia, Timberland, Ecco, Dr. Martens, Mountain Hardwear, and Birkenstock.
