Join Us for the Grand Opening of KOR Off-Road in Charlotte!
The wait is over, Charlotte — we’re officially opening our doors! Join us on Saturday, October 18, 2025, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM at 8218 E. Independence Blvd (right next to Keffer Jeep) as we celebrate the Grand Opening of KOR Off-Road.
This all-day, family-friendly celebration marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for off-road enthusiasts across the Carolinas. Expect grand opening specials on gear and apparel, giveaways and prizes, and fun activities for the whole family. Whether you drive a Jeep, truck, SUV, or something completely different — you’re invited to join the adventure.
Why KOR Off-Road?
At KOR, we believe off-roading isn’t just about where you go — it’s about who you go with.
Our shop was built for everyone: any rig, any budget, every adventure.
As Rick Trinkl, Founder of KOR Off-Road and General Manager of Keffer Jeep, puts it:
“KOR is for everyone — every rig, every budget, every adventure. Whether you’re looking for a simple upgrade or building a fully customized rig, our team of adventure-loving experts is here to help you make it happen. We built KOR to be a place where people can learn, connect, and get inspired — and we’re just getting started.”
From performance parts and recovery gear to apparel and accessories, we’ve got everything you need to take your build — and your adventures — to the next level.
October Giving Initiative
Giving back is part of who we are. In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we’re proud to support Carolina Breast Friends, a Charlotte-based nonprofit that provides programs and community to those facing breast cancer.
During our Grand Opening, 5% of all apparel and merchandise sales will be donated directly to Carolina Breast Friends. Every purchase helps make a difference — and you’ll leave with some great gear too.
Save the Date for Our First Charity Trail Ride
The celebration doesn’t stop after opening day! On Saturday, October 25, we’re hitting the trails for our first charity trail ride, with 100% of proceeds benefiting Carolina Breast Friends. Registration is $50 per vehicle and includes a limited-edition event T-shirt and light lunch.
To sign up, visit our Events Calendar on KORoffroad.com — spots are limited, and this one’s going to fill up fast.
More Than Just Off-Road
Sure, we love Jeeps and trail rigs — but that’s just the beginning.
KOR Off-Road proudly serves all makes and models. Maybe you want a new sound system in your Tesla, or you’re looking to level up your truck before your next road trip — we can help with that too.
As Melissa Trinkl, our Director of Marketing and Events, says:
“We’ve been working hard to create something special for the off-road community. We can’t wait to meet everyone, share this space, and hit the trails together. The grand opening is just the start of what’s ahead.”
Let’s Celebrate Together
Mark your calendar for Saturday, October 18, and come be part of something new in the Charlotte off-road community. Bring your family, your friends, and your sense of adventure — because this is just the beginning.
Any Rig. Any Budget. Every Adventure.
