Yakima began as a small machine shop in Yakima, Washington, before it was transformed in 1979 by outdoor adventurers Steve Cole and Don Banducci. They quickly made waves, outfitting vehicles with aerodynamic fairings at the 1984 Summer Olympics. Today, Yakima is renowned for its innovative cargo management solutions, including roof racks, bike carriers, and cargo boxes, all designed to enhance your journey. Their commitment to quality and adventure ensures that your gear is transported safely and in style, wherever the road takes you.
