Confluence Outdoor


Last week, Confluence Outdoor and its high quality, American-made canoes and kayaks represented South Carolina on AOL’s This Built America editorial series.

Some surprising details include:

  • One of the perks of employment is access to over 100 free kayaks and canoes that team members can take out for free to use on the water.
  • Confluence can make a new prototype in just a day—something that used to take up to six months.
  • Confluence re-uses excess plastic shavings from canoes and kayaks to make other parts.
  • Their CEO, Sue Rechner, was the CEO of Victorinox Swiss Army before joining the company and turning it around.
  • Confluence’s fastest growing kayak business are boats designed for the kayak angler market.
