Breaking News: Inside Rumpl's Management Shakeup!


Listen Later

Today on The Rock Fight (an outdoor podcast that aims for the head) we're once again breaking news!

Outdoor blanket maker Rumpl has announced a significant management change, with founder Wiley Robinson shifting from CEO to chairman of the board, while Josh Simpson steps in as general manager. And The Rock Fight has the scoop as both of them join Colin and outdoor industry insider Eoin Comerford on today's episode to break it all down.

This transition is aimed at enhancing Rumpl's focus on brand and product innovation, as Robinson seeks to balance personal responsibilities with the complexities of running a growing company.

During the show, Robinson and Simpson discuss the strategic implications of this leadership shift, including how it will affect Rumpl's approach to product development and market positioning. They also delve into the brands challenges, such as inventory management and pricing strategies in the wake of recent economic pressures.

Lastly they offer a look at what 2025 may hold as tariffs loom and sustainability remains a key demand from the outdoor consumer.
