Founded in 1981 in Seattle, Washington, Blue Everest began as a small outfitter catering to weekend hikers looking for reliable gear. Over the decades, it evolved into a powerhouse brand serving the urban adventurer — those who navigate both the city streets and rugged trails with equal confidence.
Today, the company boasts over 120 retail locations across North America, a thriving e-commerce platform, and a social media presence that transforms everyday explorers into storytellers, sharing their journeys with the world.
Founded just seven years ago, Grasshopper has rapidly become a go-to hub for wireless and radio-based technology enthusiasts. What started as a niche online retailer catering to gadget lovers, hobbyists, and playful hackers has evolved into a thriving brand with a global cult following.
Now, with four newly opened storefronts in the Mid-Atlantic region, Grasshopper is bringing hands-on exploration to its customers, offering interactive demos, maker workshops, and deep dives into the latest in RC cars, drones, router extenders, and smart home tech.
