COMPANY NEWS: OGIO Launches New Program for Tournament Organizers

2005-01-26

Gear bag manufacturer OGIO, designer of some of the golf industry’s revolutionary golf bags and components, is launching its first tournament program collection at the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando, Florida.  The collection – which includes an array of OGIO’s best-selling duffel bags, backpacks, messenger bags, coolers, and luggage – enhances the company’s already popular golf bag options.
“OGIO’s brand is a powerhouse not only in the golf market, but also in the action sports and luggage industries as well,” explains the company’s golf sales manager, Andy Gilkison.  
“Consumers associate OGIO with momentum; with quality – it’s a brand that has built an exponentially strong and loyal customer base.  This new program is destined to be a sure-fire hit for tournament directors who want prizes and product that reflect their own high standards.”
Thanks to new technology that allows for imprinting on less-accessible areas, OGIO is now able to offer tournament directors a selection of bags ideally suited for member/guest, local club, and corporate tournament events.  “Just like tournament directors strive to simplify the gift selection process for its customers, OGIO is now creating an easy, one-stop concept for our customers as well,” Gilkison explains.  
In addition to custom embroidery options, OGIO now offers its customers the choice of custom PVC-flex logoing – expanding the areas that can be personalized.  Using camera-ready art, the company’s tournament program team can create dimensional, flexible logos up to five inches in diameter. 
Included in OGIO’s Tournament Program catalog are:
 
35 Liter Duffel
Dispatch Messenger Bag
Pulley Cooler
55 Liter Duffel
Trooper Blanket
Transporter Garment Bag
City Corp Briefcase
