Big Agnes Secures Long-Term Steamboat Springs Headquarters
Steamboat Springs, Colo. (July 26, 2023) – Big Agnes, the Steamboat-Springs-based outdoor equipment brand, recently announced that it has secured a long-term home for the company’s headquarters in downtown Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Located in the heart of downtown at 840 Yampa Street, just steps from the Yampa River, the building has been home to both Big Agnes and Steamboat Springs Fire Rescue for the previous two years. Firehouse Holdings, LLC, an entity wholly owned by the Big Agnes ownership group which has leased the facility to Big Agnes, closed on the purchase of the building on June 30, 2023.
“Retention and expansion of quality jobs and primary businesses like Big Agnes makes the Yampa Valley’s economy more diverse and sustainable. Thank you to Big Agnes’ owners and the City of Steamboat Springs for working to keep Big Agnes downtown,” said John Bristol, Routt County Economic Development Partnership executive director. “This work builds on our strategy to make Steamboat Springs and Yampa Street home to the most innovate and sustainable outdoor gear brands.”
The 12,810-square-foot facility, previously the city’s police station, currently houses Big Agnes’ brand headquarters in the upstairs level while a majority of the lower level, not occupied by Big Agnes staff, is leased back to the City of Steamboat Springs for fire station use until the new station location is being built. Once the city’s fire operations vacate the facility, Big Agnes will expand into the full building by adding offices, meeting rooms, a product development suite and possibly a public retail location.
