Orvis Go Green

24 November, 200825 November, 2008 by Alistair

I would hope that it would be fishing manufacturers that would take the steps in going green. Sure I recycle in my home and try to be as energy conscious as possible however there is always a nagging thought that really it should be the big boys that try and cut down on wastage. It is good to see that Orvis as usual appear to be taking the lead and making their distribution centre in Roanoke as green as possible.

The first article shows a video and it includes footage from the distribution centre itself. Just look at the rows and rows of what I can only assume are vices and waders. All the gear you would ever want (to recycle) 😉
