GSI Outdoors has parted ways with its German distributor, Ventus Sports. The U.S. company, which started in 1985 with a truckload of enamelware from Mexico, has grown to be a producer of high-quality camping cookware. The distribution in Germany will be directly handled by the company's European sales consultant, Andreas Ruhs, who is also taking care of Austria, Hungary, Slovenia and Switzerland. He has been with GSI since 2011, after working for Primus, Suunto and Katadyn. GSI has recently expanded into Belarus as part of its push into Eastern Europe. The company now has retail clients in 42 countries. Ventus Sports will be concentrating on a single brand, KingCamp from China.
