"It really was my family that made me decide to keep going." - Jack Kirkham
We had an incredible time touring the one and only Springbar Canvas Tent factory. Thank you to Jack Kirkham for taking the time to show us how he and his father went from AAA Tent & Awning to Springbar, a leading company in canvas products: tents, backpacks, and more. We learned how he navigated selling his father's company and how his family influenced his decision to continue the Springbar brand. Thank you Springbar for having us! #graniteceo #springbarcanvas #behappycamper
