Why We Started Savage Trading Co.
What began as a search for something we could not find became the foundation for an entirely new kind of company.
Most of what ends up here started with one of us saying, “What if we tried this?”
Sometimes it becomes a business. Sometimes it becomes a trip, a useful idea, or a story worth telling. Sometimes it goes absolutely nowhere.
We keep track of all of it here.
We’re based in Tampa Bay and have a thing for tropical places, tiki bars, old maps, and seeing where the next turn takes us. So yes…the pirate-map thing is intentional.
Businesses, brands, products, websites and weird ideas we decide deserve a real shot.
Places, experiences, local spots and whatever else is worth leaving the house for.
Experiments, systems and ideas we try in real life instead of talking about forever.
What worked, what failed, what surprised us and what we’d do differently.
The Direction Finder is a simple system we’re developing to help us and you narrow the giant mess of interests, skills, ideas and possibilities into a few directions actually worth testing.

The places, people, objects, and moments shaping the world behind Savage Trading Co.
A look behind the scenes at our first shipment and the ideas, materials, and details bringing it to life.
Businesses, websites, strategy, products, rabbit holes, and turning ideas into things.
Style, ideas, taste, perspective, and helping shape the life and projects we actually want to build.
