Eagle Creek is an American luggage manufacturer headquartered in Carlsbad, California. The company was founded in 1975 in the San Jacinto Mountains of California, and in 2007 was acquired by VF Corporation. Originally supporting California, the company has evolved to be an international wholesaler with distribution to Canada, Europe, and other countries. Eagle Creek was founded in 1975 by Steve and Nona Barker in the San Jacinto Mountains of California, where they ran a retail store called Mountain People selling custom mountain packs. Production began in a 1,500 square feet (140 m2) manufacturing facility in Solana Beach, California.
After beginning negotiations in late 2006,[3] Eagle Creek was acquired by VF Outdoor, Inc., a subsidiary of clothing company VF Corporation, in January 2007.
