Scott Jensen, CEO and Founder of Near Zero Outdoors joins the podcast to talk about a whole bunch of exciting news from Near Zero. We talked about Scott's youth, growing up as an Eagle Scout, and the outdoor skills that he learned through the program.
Scott spent the first 15 years of his career in corporate supply chain in the medical device and aerospace industries, which gave him exposure to global manufacturing partners and best practices. With a move back to the United States from China, Scott and his family turned their sights on the outdoor industry and founded Near Zero, to provide high quality backpacking and camping gear to the industry, at a more affordable, and accessible price.
We spent time talking about the new 3rd generation of the Dean Backpack, and all of the updates the've made to the backpack, the little dean, their new 10 piece backpacking bundle and more. Finishing up the conversation, we talked about Near Zero's future, including working with more wholesalers, their growth, and even a new rental program they are launching to make backpacking even more accessible.
