A premier sporting goods retailer operating in Northwest Montana, Idaho and Washington state. Two small, robust companies that have withstood the tests of time came together in 2010. Crown Enterprises, Inc., operating the Sportsman Ski Haus, founded in 1968, with stores in Kalispell and Whitefish, Montana purchased Tri-State Outfitters, in business since 1946, headquartered in Moscow, Idaho, with locations also in Lewiston, and Couer D’Alene, Idaho, and Moses Lake, Washington. Together the stores employ around 275 people and present a palette of similarities and differences that offer choices from the best of both worlds. As of 2015, the stores are in an exciting phase with major updating and expansions completed or in process where needed, discovering daily how everything needs to work to optimize efforts and resources and developing an overall structure and plan for the future. It is the commitment and the passion of our company to continue to serve our customers fairly, conscientiously and beyond their expectations. We are also committed to giving back to the communities we serve, knowing that investing in our communities, their resources and their people, is also an investment in ourselves and the place we live. It is our belief that in carrying forth with these principles we will continue to prosper and grow as a company and as individuals. Crown Enterprises has been an employee owned company since 2000. and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) was extended to include all eligible employees from both divisions.
