He also designed and sewed products for mushers that once had to manufacture themselves. In 1986, Patricia Rae met George and began working at the shop, and eventually were married. In December 1997 the store moved from its Dowling Road location to the expanded space on International Airport Rd. In May of 1999 Patricia along with the help of her three children who work at Rae's, opened a new store in Soldotna. Rae's Harness Shop is truly a family owned and operated business.
Customer service ranks as our store's leading accomplishment.
Quality control also is critical in manufacturing harnesses and other supplies. Rae's currently employs 9 people in the Anchorage store, and 2 in the Soldotna store.
