About Sports, Inc
Sports, Inc is a national buying group for independent sporting goods retailers in the team sports and outdoor markets. It began in 1965 in Lewistown, Montana, with seven outdoor stores and has grown into a nationwide network of independently owned dealers that serve schools, colleges, leagues and communities.
For public buyers, Sports, Inc offers athletic equipment and uniforms supplied through those local dealers. A school district or parks department can work with a dealer that knows its teams while the purchase runs through one channel. The group also runs industry trade shows several times a year that bring its dealers and suppliers together.
