OrderMyGear.com, founded by CEO Kent McKeaigg in 2008, offers a platform for sporting goods dealers to create and manage online stores.

Kent started OrderMyGear to solve a problem his father, a 35-year Team Sporting Goods veteran, had while selling to teams and schools: the amount of paperwork that comes from team sales. OrderMyGear is now the industry leader for online team stores and group ordering and replaces traditional paper order forms and lets everyone individually order and pay for their gear online.

The first software company of its kind, OrderMyGear has used its technology to help brands and distributors with group orders that are paid individually. OrderMyGear now works with over 1,000 distributors across the US and Canada, in addition to brands like Nike, Under Armour and Adidas.
