History
The brand was developed by Corning. In 1984, Corning considered closing Serengeti due to poor financial performance. However, entrepreneur Zaki Mustafa convinced the board that he could save the brand. He attributed poor sales to a product-centric focus, poor marketing, anemic customer service, and inefficient asset management. With only fifty-two employees, he successfully raised sales from $5 million in 1985 to $62 million in 1992.
The Serengeti brand was acquired by Bushnell in September 2000.
