Headquartered in Annecy, in the heart of the French Alps, Nic Impex has been distributing ski and outdoor products for over 30 years. Initially founded to distribute the Colltex brand internationally, the company has established itself little by little as the leader in the ski touring market by distributing some of the most well-known brands in this fast-growing sport.

Over the years, Nic Impex has diversified by expanding its product portfolio and by developing its own brand, ARVA, world specialist in mountain safety. This dual positioning as both a brand and a distributor provides Nic Impex with its strategic vision.

A human-sized company, at Nic Impex working closely with both customers and suppliers is important. As a now recognized leader by the industry’s major stakeholders, shops, and mountain professionals, the company seeks first and foremost to continue to develop its longstanding reputation for high-quality products and services.
