Metal Detecting is Hot. Are You Missing Out?
Six reasons why hunting and fishing retailers and distributors should consider selling Minelab
Chicago, IL (June 8, 2022) – The Outdoor Retailer Summer Show is coming to Denver next week, reuniting brands, retailers, media, athletes, designers, industry leaders, and key stakeholders for business and important conversations. Some of those conversations will undoubtedly center on current economic conditions and resultant market concerns. The pandemic has been good to our industry, but how long will the good times last amidst historically high inflation and other economic pressures starting to impact retail sales?
Thankfully, history has proven hunting and fishing largely recession-proof activities. Like hunting and fishing, metal detecting and treasure hunting are enthusiast activities practiced in the great outdoors with a subsistence – or, more accurately, a reward – component. These activities are a natural fit to the lifestyles of those who already hunt and fish. Hunters and anglers also lose things when they’re in the field. Adding a metal detector to their arsenal of outdoor gear not only affords an exciting new pursuit, but it also helps them quickly recover commonly lost items like keys and tools. For these reasons, retailers of hunting and fishing gear already have potential metal-detecting customers in their stores and on their ecommerce sites, whether they realize it or not.
