Gander Mountain revealed plans to open its newest Texas location in Laredo this fall.
“For Texans, Gander Mountain is the place to go among outdoors enthusiasts who are seeking the best selection, service and prices,” said Gander Mountain chief executive officer David Pratt. “We are happy to bring another new Gander Mountain store to the people in the Lone Star State, where outdoors traditions run deep and are passed down from generation to generation. We’re looking forward to giving more people in South Texas the chance to experience all that Gander Mountain offers.”
The newest Gander Mountain will be located in a new 60,310-square-foot store in the Plaza de San Isidro development, on Nafta Blvd., near the intersection of McPherson Road and U.S. 59/Bob Bullock Loop. It will be the fourth new Gander Mountain location either announced or opened in Texas in 2015. A new store opened in Killeen in March, there is a new store opening in El Paso in late May, and a new Gander Mountain will be coming to Frisco.
“Laredo’s location close to great hunting and fishing makes Gander Mountain a perfect fit for our area,” said City of Laredo Mayor Pete Saenz. “We are excited to welcome such an established retail company who can service the many outdoor enthusiasts in Laredo.”
“We appreciate the warm welcome we have received from the people in Laredo and look forward to the grand opening in the fall,” said Gander Mountain Executive Vice President and Director of Real Estate Eric Jacobsen.
Additional details on special events, activities and promotions that will be a part of the new store grand opening celebration will be available at www.GanderMountain.com.
