Founded in 1938 by Lloyd and Mary Anderson, this privately held American retail corporation has grown over decades to become a thriving, billion-dollar enterprise. Widely regarded as an excellent place to purchase outdoor equipment and apparel, REI has stores, retail outlets and an online e-commerce site that ships its products to customers around the globe. Popular REI products include:

• Ski and snowboard accessories and apparel
• Sleeping bags and camping gear
• Quality shoes and athletic clothing

The company is known for its philanthropic endeavors; every year, REI donates millions of dollars towards conservation efforts. Volunteer teams across the United States that consist of customers, REI employees and cooperative members work together to clean beaches, build trails and restore local habitats. The multinational enterprise, which began as a small group of 23 mountain-climbing buddies, has evolved into the nation's largest consumer cooperative.

Review

Ever since FORTUNE magazine started publishing its yearly list of "100 Best Companies to Work For" list, REI has appeared in its rankings of exemplary employers. The company strives to reduce its environmental footprint by practicing responsible business ethics and by using recycled products, such as shipping materials, whenever possible. There are over 110 REI stores in the United States, and the company opens up to five new stores a year.

A large bulk of the company's profits is derived from online and catalogue sales. In addition to over 100 retail stores, REI has an excellent website where customers from around the world can purchase its products. REI also offers an online outlet store, accessible from the store website, where customers can find quality, brand name sports gear at a reduced price. The company also offers free shipping on orders over $50 within the United States.

Pros and Cons

Savvy online shoppers will enjoy the special savings found on the giant sports retailer's website. REI offers a Deal of the Day, a Deal of the Week and items under $20 for customers shopping for a bargain. Because REI has both an online store and retail locations in every state, it's easy to find an item online and then find it in the store to try it on. However, not all online items are available at retail locations, so it's best to call the store and check to see if the item is in stock. REI has a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee, so if the shirt doesn't fit just right, it can be returned and the customer will be issued a refund or REI store credit.
