How It All Began

Our story starts with one man: Kenneth Vermeulen.

Ken was the epitome of an outdoorsman, passionate about adventure and eager to share it with everyone he met. In 1959, he founded Kenver to provide unbeatable outdoor advice, the best gear, and a warm cup of coffee or cider for fellow adventurers.

Although we lost Ken in 2012, his spirit lives on in everything we do. The name Kenver honors the man who started it all.
