Traeger, trading on the NYSE under the ticker COOK, is a designer, manufacturer and marketer of wood pellet grills and outdoor cooking appliances. The company’s core product lineup features a range of hardwood-pellet grills that combine wood-fired flavor with digital temperature control. Beyond grills, Traeger offers a suite of accessories—such as grill covers, smoking woods, meat probes and recipe rubs—as well as outdoor kitchen solutions designed to serve both consumer and light-commercial segments.
Founded in 1985 by Joe Traeger, the brand pioneered the wood-pellet grilling category. After experiencing fluctuating sales in the early 2000s, the company was revitalized in 2009 under new ownership and leadership, which invested in product innovation and digital integration. Today, Traeger operates from its headquarters in Salt Lake City, Utah, and maintains research and development facilities focused on smart-grill technology, including WiFIRE® connectivity that allows users to monitor and adjust cooking temperatures via mobile app.
Traeger’s senior management team brings deep experience in consumer goods, digital technology and supply chain optimization. This leadership has steered the company through a successful public listing and continues to expand its reach through strategic partnerships, product line extensions and an emphasis on user community engagement—hosting cooking classes, recipe development and competitive grilling events.
Traeger distributes its products across North America through direct-to-consumer e-commerce channels and major retail partners, and it has extended its presence into Europe, Australia and select Asian markets. The company’s multi-channel strategy combines online pellet delivery subscriptions, branded retail environments and a network of authorized dealers to support growth in both backyard and professional cooking applications.
