Lahout’s was founded in 1920 as a small country store in Littleton, NH, the Lahout Family - driven by Anthony’s grandfather Joe Lahout became the lifeblood that ushered in the growth of the ski industry in the northeast. Retail businesses are always a challenging endeavor, Lahouts has endured and thrived across their 8 locations in Lincoln and Littleton, NH.
