Regional sporting goods retailer expanding in the West

Sportsman’s Warehouse is building out its retail portfolio in familiar territory.



The Utah-based retailer announced three new locations: Everett, Washington; Pueblo, Colorado; and Visalia, California. The new stores are expected to open in the second half of 2017.



The location in Everett will be the tenth Sportsman’s Warehouse store in the state of Washington and will be located in the Greentree Plaza.



Sportsman’s Warehouse will construct the Visalia, California location in the Grove at Packwood Creek shopping center and will be its eighth location in the state of California. The Pueblo, Colorado store will be the sixth Sportsman’s Warehouse location in the state of Colorado and will be constructed as a smaller format store.



With these planned openings combined with their previous announced 2017 store openings, Sportsman’s Warehouse will operate 85 stores in 22 states.



These stores will feature an extensive selection of hunting, fishing and camping gear, as well as a wide range of apparel and footwear. As with all Sportsman’s Warehouse locations, the store will also feature instruction, seminars and special events related to outdoor activities.



“We are excited to further expand our presence in states we know very well,” stated John Schaefer, Sportsman’s Warehouse CEO “These new markets have a large user base that is currently under served through existing retailers. The additions of these stores keep with our business plan, promoting stable growth that will benefit our company, our vendors, and most importantly, our loyal customers for many years to come.”
