Modell’s Sporting Goods opened the company’s 9th Brooklyn location on Kings Highway in Sheepshead Bay. This will bring Modell’s total store count to 157 locations.
The new location will host a ceremonial ribbon cutting at 9 a.m. on Thursday, June 14 with members of the Modell’s Sporting Goods executive committee, including Senior Vice President of Operations Jim Argerakis, as well as members of the local community.
Modell’s will open at 1601 Kings Highway in Brooklyn, New York, just a block away from the Kings Highway B/Q Station. The bi-level, 13,600+-square-foot location is situated between East 16th and 17th Streets in Midwood.
“Modell’s is thrilled to open the new location in Sheepshead Bay, right on the cusp of the Summer and 4th of July,” said CEO Mitchell Modell. “We’ve been looking forward to opening this location for some time now and we plan on being a strong pillar in the local community.”
To celebrate the opening of the new location, Modell’s will host New York Giants’ Lineman Will Hernandez on Saturday, June 16 at 12 p.m. for a fan meet and greet. Customers will have the opportunity to participate in special giveaways and offers throughout the four-day extravaganza between Thursday, June 14 and Sunday, June 17.
