The equestrian market is rising according to industry reports. That provides a window of opportunity. Escanaba Polo Mallet Co. is exploring handmade local sourced products and entering that market on a very niche basis. Some ideas include saddle pads, horse blankets, along with a few clothing items, such as knitted outdoor hats made by local craftspeople. We’re also looking at gear such as canvas bags and mesh bags—products that we can make ourselves or source locally. It’s exciting to see where this could go. If you’re interested, check out some of our products.
