Gander Mountain will open its newest Georgia location in Snellville this fall.
 
“In the fall of 2012, Gander Mountain opened its first store in Georgia, and we immediately became the place to go for outdoors enthusiasts in the region who are seeking the best selection, service and prices,” said David Pratt, Gander Mountain’s chief executive officer. “We are thrilled to bring another new Gander Mountain store to the people in Georgia, where outdoors traditions run deep and are passed down from generation to generation. We welcome this opportunity to provide more people in metro Atlanta with opportunities to experience all that Gander Mountain offers.”

The newest Gander Mountain will be located in a new 52,000-square-foot store in the Snellville Exchange shopping complex, near the intersection of Scenic Highway and Essex Drive, adjacent to the existing Hobby Lobby store. It will be the sixth Gander Mountain location in Georgia, and the third in metro Atlanta, joining existing stores in Albany, Augusta, McDonough, Newnan and Valdosta.

“Snellville is excited to welcome Gander Mountain to the community. We look forward to a mutually-beneficial relationship for years to come,” said Snellville Mayor Kelly Kautz. “Snellville is a community known for its quality retail shopping and a new Gander Mountain store will only bolster that reputation. We are pleased Gander Mountain chose the Snellville area to call home to one of its stores. We are appreciative of the jobs the store will create and look forward to participating in its grand opening.”

“We appreciate the warm welcome we have received from the people in Gwinnett County and look forward to the grand opening of our most recent Georgia store in the fall,” said Eric Jacobsen, Gander Mountain’s Executive Vice President and Director of Real Estate.
