Company Background and the Path Ahead

Greyson is a pioneer of innovative products and design, a lifestyle brand with emotional connections to our consumer through authenticity and dedication of service. From the beginning, the brand has valued high design and high technical performance to better meet the needs of the existing and emerging golf consumer while also gaining inspiration from those around us, supporting the environment, and standing for unity and diversity. We plan for purposeful commUNITY connections via our Brand Ambassadors such as the Morgan Hoffman Foundation and through our community outreach activities. Greyson has since expanded beyond golf apparel into multiple complementary lifestyle categories and is quickly building credibility beyond golf wear. While “green grass” has been the launch pad for the brand, Greyson has developed into an omnichannel brand through wholesale, ecommerce, and retail stores. The Greyson brand is experiencing a special moment in its trajectory.
