 PROFILE
The Coleman Company didn't make that pointy rock you slept on the last time you went camping, but it might have made the sleeping bag, tent, and lantern you used. As a leading maker of outdoor recreation gear, the company also produces coolers, backpacks, camp stoves, and other camping accessories, sold under the Coleman, campingaz, and Peak 1 brands. Its hardware division produces portable generators and air compressors under the Powermate brand. A subsidiary of small-appliance maker Sunbeam, Coleman has sales offices and distribution facilities worldwide and sells its products mainly through mass merchandisers, home centers, and other retail stores.
