About Us
Mission: To cultivate community between "Alaskan Owned and Operated" businesses, civic organizations, and student populations in cities, boroughs, and villages.
Vision: To strengthen the socio-economic fabric in our state by supporting Alaskan businesses via brand awareness and education outreach.
ALASKAN OWNED apparel is a for-profit, social enterprise. For us, that means our financial footprint and social impact are equally important.
Our Founder, Becky Strub, grew up in the small coastal town of Valdez, Alaska. She knows that owning and operating a business in the 49th state is not for the faint-hearted. It takes grit, dedication, persistence, and season after season of hard work—often times in harsh conditions. Living rural, Becky always noticed business owners who stepped-up and found ways to give back. As a result, brand awareness and promoting connections to local business are the foundation for ALASKAN OWNED apparel.
The Alaskan Owned story is an important one. Our plan now? To share it with the world!
