Little River Trading Company Celebrates 25 Years in East Tennessee
Little River Trading Company is excited to celebrate 25 years of providing quality outdoor gear and services to East Tennessee. Since its founding in 1996, Little River Trading Company has been known for its quality outdoor gear and clothing. Now, the store is planning a multi-day celebration event, scheduled for the fall, to thank customers for their years of support.
Located among the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Maryville, the store’s local ties are important to maintain. For Little River Trading Company owner Charles Woody, “Community is the biggest thing.” Operating the store has become a family affair in more ways than one. “I raised my boys in the business,” Woody says. The store has gone on to serve multiple generations of customers, he notes, adding, “It’s amazing to have the friends and families that still come in and shop with us, people that have shopped for 25 years.”
Now, Little River Trading Company is working to thank the community that supported them. A 25th Anniversary Celebration, scheduled for the fall, is in the works now with details to come soon. This event will feature unique activities and vendors, and a specialty beer from Blackberry Farms Brewery. For a limited time, the shop will also be reprinting shirts, hats, and other goods with their vintage Little River Trading Company 1996 logo, which will be available for purchase at the event.
“Our motto has always been ‘quality outdoor gear and clothing since 1996,’” says Woody, “and it always has been quality—everything.” Little River Trading Co. offers footwear, hiking gear, climbing supplies, clothing, camping equipment, and more.
