Back 40 Outfitters is the summer hack you need to get outside
Female entrepreneur Shannon Jephson-Hernandez is passionate about getting everyone outdoors. She has created a unique storefront business in downtown Kent that has been operating for about five years. She intentionally chose the Kent valley when she relocated from California 22 years ago due to the proximity to great camping and hiking. She discovered that many others want to have the same experience but found barriers, in cost, knowledge gaps or even the time it takes to plan and organize gear, not to mention the clean up and storage afterwards. Inspired to dismantle these barriers, she created a model where people can simply reserve pre-packed kits of gear for a simple fee, pick it up, go have a blast and drop it off when they’re done. That’s it! No cleaning, repacking or putting everything away.
