Ranger Design celebrates 30 years in business

Randal and Derek Cowie founded the business in 1988

RangerDesign
October 25, 2018

Ranger Design recently announced 2018 is its 30th anniversary. For three decades, Ranger Design has been a name recognized for integrity, quality, contemporary technology and time-tested values. The company is committed to excellence and knowledge of the van-outfitting industry.

The foundation of Ranger Design in 1988 stemmed from the owners’ personal struggles with disorganized, ineffective work vehicles. Randal Cowie, the inventor, and Derek Cowie, the designer, began working towards the ideal solution and were soon asked to provide their equipment to other contractors.

From their headquarters in a tiny garage, Ranger Design gradually grew into a thriving company dedicated to improving the efficiency and safety of mobile technicians.

As the innovative designs and quality of Ranger Design’s products became more widely known, the business expanded at a rapid pace. More and more products were offered — not only shelving, but also ladder racks, drawers and bins, bottle holders and a vast quantity of accessories, all renowned for their trademark toughness.

Now, with more than 300 loyal distributors and a team of staff committed to upholding the standard of excellence, Ranger Design is moving into the future with confidence. From humble beginnings to the world-class corporation of today, Ranger Design continues to write the story of success while proving to customers that more is possible.
