If you've ever been in a camping store, you've most definitely seen products from Coghlan's. The "outdoor accessory people" started 50 years ago in 1959 while Norm Coghlan was running Coghlan's Gas Appliances in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Campers would come in for repairs on their camp stoves and lanterns, so Norm started selling tents, sleeping bags and air mattresses.Customers wanted a way to make toast on their pump-up gas camping stove, and since Norm's store carried such an item, he found out the U.S. based company that manufactured the toaster was discontinuing it. He bought the entire inventory, rented a storage facility and began Coghlan's distribution of camping accessories. The Camp Stove Toaster has been made in Winnipeg, Manitoba since the mid-1960s. Coghlan’s has assembled and packaged over 7 million 504D Toasters.Coghlan's now sells over 450 accessories including bear bells, whistles, squeeze tubes, hammocks, fire starters, hot dog skewers, signal mirrors and compasses. All Coghlan's gear comes in those green and yellow packages above that make them look like they were made in the 50s - the reason they're so damn cool (and unreliable).Do y'all ever buy Coghlan's stuff when you're at the camping store?
