Pepi Steigler Sports wins Kästle’s Best Dealer Award
October 22, 2009 (Wels, Austria) – Local Teton Village ski shop Pepi Stiegler Sports
has been awarded with the 2009 Kästle Best Dealer Award. The award recognizes
a top North American Kästle retailer with strong sales growth, service quality and
overall retail experience in the 2008/09-ski season.
Pepi Stiegler Sports has been a stand out retail shop since becoming a Kästle dealer
two seasons ago. Having skied on Kästle skis in the 1960 Olympics-Squaw Valley,
CA and in the 1964 Olympics in Innsbruck, Austria, Pepi Stiegler himself was well
aware of Kästle’s premium quality and high performance heritage.
Since Kästle’s return in 2007, the company has grown exponentially across the
world. Kästle currently has 31 store locations in the western US and looks to
continue its North American expansion.
“On behalf of Kästle in Austria, I would like to congratulate Gov Carrigan, manager/
buyer and Pepi Stiegler Sports for receiving this award,” says, Jesse Pomerantz,
Western Territory Manager for Kästle. “Kästle, premium quality skis from the
heart of the Austria Alps is an 85 year old brand whose heritage runs deep with
world class athletes. We are thrilled with the experienced and service oriented
staff members at Pepi Stiegler’s and feel the shop atmosphere is a perfect match for
Kästle products; past, present, and future.”
The 2009/10 Kästle line is available in North America and Europe at selected
retailers. Kästle’s complete 2009 line includes: the RX (on-piste precision), the
MX70 (pure on-piste), the MX78 (all-mountain), the MX88 (freeride), the MX98
