Fin Feather Fur Outfitters Acquires Ashland Bike Company, Expands Outdoor Sports Offerings

Fin Feather Fur Outfitters is making waves in the cycling world with its recent acquisition of Ashland Bike Company. This move not only expands the outdoor sports retailer’s offerings but also creates new opportunities for both businesses.

Established in 1985, Fin Feather Fur has become a powerhouse in the outdoor sports industry, with over 300 employees across multiple retail sites, an online store, and a distribution center. By adding Ashland Bike Company to its portfolio, Fin is now able to cater to a broader customer base and provide even more outdoor adventure options.

The acquisition will also benefit Ashland Bike Company by giving them access to a larger customer base, more inventory, and a strong support team. This will allow the bike shop to continue providing top-notch service and expertise to its customers.

Tony Bunt and his wife, Michelle, founded Ashland Bike Company in 2017, bringing years of experience and knowledge to the cycling world. The shop carries a variety of top brands in road, mountain, hybrid, BMX, and e-bike categories, as well as cycling apparel and gear. With a full-service shop and a team of dedicated employees, Ashland Bike Company has become a staple in the cycling community.

Under the new ownership, Bunt will remain as the bike shop’s manager, ensuring a smooth transition for both employees and customers. Additionally, employees will have the opportunity to participate in Fin’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan, a retirement benefit program that demonstrates the company’s commitment to its staff.

Overall, this acquisition marks an exciting new chapter for both Fin Feather Fur Outfitters and Ashland Bike Company. With a shared passion for outdoor sports and adventure, these two businesses are poised to make a lasting impact in the cycling world.
