Company to expand product line, add jobs

Yeti Coolers LLC had a smooth transition into its offices on Southwest Parkway last summer, spokeswoman Denise Smith said.

"We now have five times more office space with plenty of room to grow," she said.

2013 was a strong year for the company—revenue surpassed expectations, and sales have tripled compared with where the company was a few years ago, Smith said.

In 2013, Yeti launched the Yeti Tank, an insulated ice bucket, and introduced the Ice Blue color option.

The company has added staff positions in the past two years and plans to add more in the future, she said.

The company expects to debut the Yeti Rambler 20—a stainless steel, double-wall, vacuum-insulated cup—among its new products in 2014.

"We expect 2014 will be another huge year for Yeti Coolers," Smith said. "We're adding more molds to our manufacturing facilities in an effort to build more coolers than we've ever built before.

"We are grateful to call Central Texas home," she added. "Our founders grew up here, planted their roots here and have built their business here. We can't imagine doing this anywhere else."
