O.F. Mossberg & Sons, Inc., was presented with the “2014 Innovator of the Year” Award during the opening night festivities at the 2014 National Association of Sporting Goods Wholesaler (NASGW) Expo & 41st Annual Meeting earlier this week in Little Rock, Arkansas.

NASGW recognizes those manufacturers who contribute significantly to the successful business climate of its wholesale members. Since 2012, the organization has annually selected an "Innovator of the Year" from among its members. This is the second time that Mossberg has received the award.

“Recognition for developing the most innovative products is a tremendous honor, particularly when this acknowledgement comes from our customers,” commented Tom Taylor, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “And in such a competitive market, Mossberg is extremely proud, and humbled, to be a two-time recipient of the innovator award. Developing, manufacturing and marketing the highest-quality, leading-edge firearms are the focus of our entire team.”

Mossberg recently announced increased manufacturing capabilities with the expansion of its Texas-based facility and expanded several of their firearm platforms in 2014, including 7.62mm chamberings in the popular MVP Series of bolt-action rifles and new 20-gauge and 22LR offerings for the FLEX System of shotguns and rifles.
