40 years. Six continents. One factory.

Eezi-Awn was founded in South Africa in 1983 and is among the first manufacturers in the world to produce and export rooftop tents globally — a distinction the brand has held for four decades. While other brands have come, gone, been licensed, or moved manufacturing offshore, Eezi-Awn has stayed where it started, building in-house with skilled artisans and locally-sourced materials.

The product line has been validated across six continents — Antarctic expeditions, Saharan crossings, Alaska's Dalton Highway, the Australian outback, the South American Pampas. Eezi-Awn is the preferred shelter brand for safari operators and 4×4 rental fleets that simply cannot afford gear that fails. Forty years of operating history in the toughest conditions on the planet is not something a competitor can manufacture in a marketing brief.

In the U.S., Eezi-Awn occupies a well-recognized but historically underdistributed position. Buyers who do the research arrive at the brand — they just struggle to find authorized product. Equipt is closing that gap, bringing the full Eezi-Awn ecosystem to a U.S. audience that already respects the name.
