Happy Equipment Managers Appreciation Week

Each year, the American Equipment Managers Association (AEMA) dedicates a week in September to honor the hardworking professionals who keep athletes and staff prepared for success. Equipment Managers are often the unsung heroes of athletics, consistently putting in 60-80 hour work weeks to ensure everyone has the gear they need to perform at their best. We want to take this special opportunity to show our appreciation for our Inventory Management Partners’ dedication and vital contributions to the sports world.
