Best Ski Shop in New England

1st Jun 2019

Ski Industry Names Alpine Shop "Best Ski Shop In New England" for 2016!

We are stoked to announce that New England Sports Representatives (NESR), one of the ski industry’s largest trade associations, has just recognized Alpine Shop as the "Best Ski Shop In New England" for 2016. This prestigious award was the result of an extensive vetting, nomination and voting process done annually by the ski industry’s NESR Association. It was presented to us this past week at the ski industry’s annual buying show and awards banquet in Providence, Rhode Island.

2016 Best Ski Shop In New England

This is a terrific honor for the Alpine Shop. The store has been around for over 52 years but my wife, Becky, and I have only owned it for the past five. Since my previous companies were in the music and media industries we had a lot to learn. But this award is more about our incredible staff who are some of the best ambassadors for skiing and snowboarding in the industry. Plus, they live and breathe our store’s mantra of “forward positivity.” Whether it is music, media or skiing, we quickly learned that it is all about entertainment and our staff makes sure that every customer leaves with a smile on their face.

Here’s what Will Masson, President of the NESR said during the awards presentation: "Each year the New England Sports Reps organization picks the top ski shop of the year. This is awarded to the retailer that really goes above and beyond in terms of selection, merchandising, sales person’s knowledge and overall presentation. The Alpine Shop set the new standard and we were proud to award them the "Best Ski Shop In New England" for 2016!!”

Of course, none of this would have been possible without the incredible loyalty and support of our great customers who, in many cases, have been shopping here for over five decades. And also a shout-out to our growing base of dedicated online customers from all over the world that are helping to make www.AlpineShopVT.com one of the largest ski/outdoor gear and apparel ecommerce websites in the industry. Thank you all!
