We have our finger on the pulse and have noticed these key trends driving the Aussie outdoor equipment and travel accessories market.
There is increasing demand for ultralight hiking equipment as multi-day tramping grows in popularity.
Outdoor enthusiasts have a rising preference for eco-friendly outdoor products made from recycled or sustainable materials.
Australia has a growing market for high-performance outdoor clothing with advanced features for the country’s variable climate.
We have witnessed a strong demand for space-saving, multi-functional travel products for both domestic and international travellers.
Travellers want versatile outdoor gear to match diverse seasonal and environmental conditions.
Online outdoor retail will reach a 32.4% market share by 2029, driving the need for competitive pricing and distinct product offerings.
With teams in Australia, New Zealand, China and Vietnam Epic Sourcing specialises in sourcing a wide range of outdoor and travel products, including hiking gear, camping equipment, water sports accessories, snow sports equipment, fishing tackle, travel accessories, and outdoor apparel.
Our expertise covers everything from technical performance products like waterproof jackets and tramping boots to specialised equipment such as tents, sleeping bags, backpacks and travel organisation products.
MOQs for custom outdoor products vary depending on the specific product category and level of customisation. Generally, for custom-branded standard products (like adding your logo to existing designs), MOQs can start from 100-300 units.
Want to fully custom outdoor products with unique specifications and features? MOQs typically range from 500 to 1,000 units. We work with manufacturers who are flexible with MOQs and can help you find solutions that match your business scale, whether you’re a small specialty retailer or a larger outdoor brand.
We implement a comprehensive quality control process with multiple checkpoints throughout production. We test materials before production, inspect products during manufacturing, and perform final quality checks before shipping.
For technical outdoor gear where safety is critical, such as climbing equipment, life jackets, or children’s outdoor products, we arrange specific testing to meet and exceed international safety standards. Our team continually monitors Australian compliance requirements to ensure all imported products meet local regulations before arrival.
Lead times depend on several factors, including product complexity, customisation level, and seasonal manufacturing demands.
Standard outdoor products with minimal customisation generally have lead times that range from 30 to 60 days after order confirmation.
Fully custom outdoor products with unique specifications may require 60-90 days.
During peak production seasons (typically ahead of summer and winter outdoor seasons), lead times may extend by 2-4 weeks. We work closely with manufacturers to provide realistic timelines and regular updates throughout the production process.
Yes, sustainability is increasingly essential in outdoor product sourcing. We can help you source eco-friendly alternatives, including recycled polyester for outdoor apparel and gear, PFC-free water-repellent treatments, organic cotton, sustainable packaging solutions, and biodegradable options where applicable. We also work with manufacturers who follow ethical production practices and have environmental certifications.
Let our sourcing agents guide you through the options that balance performance requirements, sustainability goals, and cost considerations for the local market.
