Gander Mountain announces that they are adding a new location in Tulsa, OK. The first Gander Mountain store in Oklahoma is set to open in the spring of 2015.
“Gander Mountain has long been a well-known and trusted name among those who love the outdoors, and who enjoy great traditions like hunting, fishing, hiking, boating and camping,” said David Pratt, Gander Mountain's chairman and CEO. “We are thrilled to continue our national expansion with the announcement of our first Oklahoma store, giving our friends in Tulsa and the surrounding region new opportunities to experience our top-quality gear and knowledgeable service at great prices.”
The Tulsa store will be located in a new 46,500-square-foot space in the Walk at Tulsa Hills, near the junction of West 81st Street and Highway 75. The store is expected to create up to 70 new jobs in the community.
“We are excited to welcome Gander Mountain to Tulsa, and are delighted that they chose our community for their first Oklahoma store,” said Tulsa Mayor Dewey Bartlett. “Oklahomans love the outdoors, so it's great news to have a premiere outdoors retailer like Gander Mountain coming to town, creating jobs and providing Tulsa with new shopping opportunities.”
“We appreciate the warm welcome we have received from the people in Tulsa and look forward to our first Oklahoma grand opening in the spring,” said Gander Mountain's Executive Vice President and Director of Real Estate Eric Jacobsen.
