1 Million Carriers Strong: Vedder Holsters Reaches Major Milestone
One million orders. One million defenders carrying with confidence. At Vedder Holsters, we've reached a milestone that's about more than numbers — it's about the people who trust us to protect what matters most.
Jonathan Sakraida, from Kennesaw, Georgia, had no idea he was placing Vedder Holsters’ one millionth order when he added a ProDraw® for his CZ P-10F to his cart on September 14, 2025. But we couldn’t let such an important occasion go unnoticed, so he was surprised when our customer service team reached out to him to say congratulations.
“I felt like I had won the lottery! I immediately called my wife and friends to gloat about it,” Sakraida said. “It's an honor to be a part of Vedder's history as the millionth customer.”
To celebrate, we sent Sakraida a premium package alongside his holster: an exclusive tumbler, tote bag, mug, pens, and notebook, as well as a gun cleaning mat, gun belt, sticker pack, and one of every shirt we offer.
The ProDraw® isn’t his first Vedder holster, and he tells us it won’t be his last. An avid concealed carrier since joining the Army as a tanker 15 years ago, Sakraida prioritizes concealability, build quality, minimal printing, and customizable options when choosing a holster.
“Vedder Holsters strike a great balance between comfort and concealability, making it easy to carry throughout the year,” he said. “[The ProDraw®] is comfortable and easy to dial in retention to my preference. I recently bought a CZ for competition shooting, and I'm looking forward to having the ProDraw® as I practice and compete.”
As the company celebrates shipping its one millionth order, Vedder Holsters Founder and Co-owner Mike Vedder is taking time to reflect on the journey that started in his garage in 2012 and express his gratitude to the customers who made it possible.
“All of us at Vedder Holsters are beyond grateful for our incredible customers. Reaching our one millionth order is more than just a milestone. It’s a reminder of the trust you’ve placed in us and the purpose behind what we do every day,” he said. “It brings us immense pride to know that each holster we craft not only helps protect lives but also supports American jobs and creates opportunities for every member of the Vedder Holsters family. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being part of this journey with us. Here’s to the next million!”
