Gander Mountain is expanding it's network of outdoor specialty stores with a new location in the Raleigh, North Carolina 'Triangle' (Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill) region.

“For many years, Gander Mountain has been a well-known and trusted name in North Carolina among those who love the outdoors, and who enjoy great traditions like hunting, fishing, hiking, boating and camping,” says David Pratt, Gander Mountain's president and CEO. “We are thrilled to bring a new Gander Mountain store to Raleigh, and give more of our friends in the Triangle opportunities to experience our top-quality gear and knowledgeable service at great prices.”

The Raleigh store will be located in the Northeast Raleigh Metro in an existing 50,700-square-foot space in the Triangle Plaza Shopping Center, at 6101 Capital Blvd. near the intersection of I-540 and Capital Blvd/U.S. Route 1.

Gander Mountain's newest store will feature one of the largest selections of new and used firearms in North Carolina, an extensive selection of men's and women's active performance outdoor and casual apparel and a wide variety of active footwear featuring brands like Asics, Merrell, Rocky, Reebok, Keen, Irish Setter, Teva, New Balance, Brooks, Patagonia, Timberland, LaCrosse, Itasca, Saucony and Salomon.

“Gander Mountain's decision to open a store in Raleigh is another sign of the continued growth and economic development we can expect to see in Raleigh in the coming years as more and more businesses choose to locate and expand in our area,” said Raleigh Mayor Nancy McFarlane.
