Our original retail platform

What it gives us

Direct category insight

The approach

A view across the heated industry.

TheWarmingStore brings our brands together with products from other manufacturers, giving customers a broad selection of heated gear. Running that assortment gives us direct insight into what sells, what customers ask for, and where products can improve.

It has also connected us with brands and founders across the industry. Some of those long-standing retail relationships later grew into partnerships and acquisitions.

What it teaches us

The signals behind better decisions.

Demand

We see what sells

Shopping patterns across brands, prices, and activities show us where customers are spending.

Product gaps

We hear what’s missing

Questions, reviews, and returns reveal problems to solve and ideas worth exploring.

Relationships

We get to know the makers

Years of buying and supporting other brands build the trust behind future partnerships.

How the acquisitions happened

Relationship Building

Each of these started as a supplier relationship rather than a process. We knew the products because we sold them, and we knew the people because we worked with them.

2019

Gerbing

Founded 1975. We had carried and serviced it for years before we bought it.

2021

Chaheati

The original patented heated chair, acquired from founders we had come to know well.

2025

Venture Heat

A long-standing supplier relationship that eventually became an acquisition.

Its place in the group

Where we learn.

Running a store that sells the whole category, competitors included, is how we find out what actually works. It shapes what we build, and it is how we came to know the founders of the brands we later acquired.
