Gander Mountain plans to open a new location in Houston in the fall.
“Gander Mountain is already a well-known and trusted name in Texas among those who love the outdoors, and who enjoy great traditions like hunting, fishing, hiking, boating and camping,” said David Pratt, Gander Mountain’s President and CEO. “We are thrilled to bring a new Gander Mountain store to Houston, and to give our friends in the region more opportunities to experience our top-quality gear and knowledgeable service at great prices.”
The newest Gander Mountain in Houston will be located in a new 52,000-square-foot store in the Market Square at Eldridge Parkway shopping center, near the intersection of Eldridge Parkway and Westheimer Road. It will be the 20th Gander Mountain location in Texas, joining existing stores in Amarillo, Arlington, Beaumont, College Station, Corsicana, Houston, Lewisville, Lubbock, Mesquite, Round Rock, San Antonio, Sherman, Spring, Sugar Land, Texarkana, Tyler, new stores coming to Waco and Lake Worth in the fall and a new store coming to El Paso in the spring of 2015.
