Deuter, Ortovox Expand U.S. Footprint With New Boulder Headquarters

Deuter, and ORTOVOX, have announced the move of their U.S. corporate headquarters to Boulder, Colorado. Both bands, owned by German-based Schwan-STABILO Outdoor, have employed NRI 3PL, a world-class third-party logistics partner based in Fontana, California, to provide fulfillment services across their U.S. networks.

“Deuter and ORTOVOX have experienced sustained growth over the last decade and pandemic-related trends accelerated this in recent years. We initially outgrew our warehouse facility four years ago and have expanded our footprint multiple times since 2020. This move will allow us to scale more efficiently in the U.S., and in turn, we will be able to bring product into the U.S. market faster, improving our already highly rated customer experience,” said Jonathan Degenhardt, managing director at deuter USA and ORTOVOX USA. 

The new 9,000-square-foot headquarters in Boulder will provide a modern and spacious workspace for deuter and ORTOVOX employees, including the marketing, sales, customer service, e-commerce, and finance departments. The space will also feature newly designed showrooms for each brand. The move takes deuter and ORTOVOX 12 miles south from their current U.S. headquarters in Longmont, Colorado. 

“Having both deuter and ORTOVOX co-locate in a modern, collaborative workspace is something we’ve really been looking forward to. Over the next few months, we’ll refresh the space with newly designed showrooms and improved capabilities to build a productive environment for each brand and our partners,” said Degenhardt.  

The new partnership with NRI 3PL will provide ample capacity for the growing demand of both brands, with comprehensive fulfillment, freight and inventory management services that all ensure the efficient delivery of products to customers across North America. 

The move to NRI 3PL has been set in motion, with a transition to be completed by July 2023. The move to the new office space in Boulder is also underway, with plans to be settled as early as June 2023. 

Additionally, the German parent company that owns deuter and ORTOVOX, among other outdoor and cosmetic brands, Schwan-STABILO, is amending its corporate name to Schwan-STABILO Outdoor USA, Inc. deuter and ORTOVOX will remain separate business entities, and operations will continue uninterrupted.
