Best known brand from each state

Thanks Arkansas!

I'm from NH and did not know that Timberland was HQ'd there.

I would've put Sig Sauer, Dartmouth College, Planet Fitness,  or Lindt personally.

Maybe DEKA...

Is it just me, or is the National Park Service an actual brand?

Here's a different one from 2 years that lists Taco Johns instead of NPS ( @kevo_55)

But I can’t really imagine anyone outside of Wyoming / Colorado knowing what Taco John’s  is?

idk wtf the Daktronics is and if I hadn't seen while I was googling WY brands, I would have no idea that Peavey is speakers. Idk what "Regions" is either or Carrs. Or what is supposed to be HI... 

 

[Road Guy]

I think regions is a bank?

 

[kevo_55]

Hey, Taco John's is great!

I love their Potato Ole's!

So Hawaii gets nothing? You'd think it'd be King's Hawaiian Bread or Local Motion or something.

Regions is a bank (we're members, but never heard of it either until we moved to TN), agree with Planet Fitness over Timberland.  Yeah, what's Hawaii's well-known brand.

Also grew up in TN and never knew FedEx was HQ'd there until just now.  I might have guessed Cracker Barrel or AutoZone, but yeah FedEx is more widely known I'm sure.

We had a Taco John's in TN close to where we live.  It was beyond terrible and that particular store/location went out of business.

Really? Was it the same chain?

they just recently really branched out into Denver(from Wyoming) a few years ago?

but I ate at one in a really tiny town along the border of Nebraska / Wyoming that was pretty awful.

Coldwater Creek is a woman's clothing store. I used to work there. It caters to a lot of middle aged teachers and older women (both my mother and grandmother shop there).

It's kinda like Talbots

I think you mean they came back to Colorado.  We had them when I was a kid. They sucked and mostly all closed down in the 80s.

We ate at one that was near an Indian reservation and it was really bad - recently they built some near us (Thornton, Westminster) and although I havent eaten fast food in a year they were pretty good (Not Chic Fil A Good by any means) but good
