Business Wire
Gander Outdoors, formerly known as Gander Mountain, will be
reopening in the North Charleston, South Carolina market this
spring. Marcus Lemonis, star of CNBC's The Profit, bought Gander
Mountain assets in bankruptcy court in May 2017 and is beginning to
reopen many of the chain's stores to serve customers who are
passionate about hunting, fishing, marine and water sports,
camping, and active and shooting sports. Gander Outdoors is owned
by Camping World Holdings, and will provide outdoor enthusiasts
with regionally and seasonally relevant products and services that
are competitively priced.
Plans are in place for the long-anticipated and eagerly-awaited
Gander Outdoors to open its doors in the North Charleston, SC
market to the public for the first time in mid February – Early
March. The new location at 7800 Rivers Avenue #1500 will introduce
more than 55 jobs to the community along with its 39,000 sq. ft.
outdoor retail, apparel, supply and service space.
“It was important to me to bring the Gander Outdoors back to the
wonderful community of North Charleston because the employees were
top notch and the store was a great performer serving the outdoor
enthusiast community,” said Marcus Lemonis, Chairman of Camping
World Holdings and star of CNBC’s The Profit. “In addition to the
North Charleston location, we are currently pursuing other
locations for reopening and expansion and expect to announce
additional locations and markets in the coming weeks.”
Following the successful bid in the bankruptcy process, Lemonis
stated his intention of operating stores with a clear path to
profitability and a then current goal of operating seventy or more
locations subject to, among other things, the ability to negotiate
acceptable lease terms with landlords.
Details are to follow on the free and open to the public Grand
Opening event and the official ribbon cutting ceremony.
Gander Outdoors is always looking for seasoned and professional
sales associates, specialists, technicians, and retail support to
assist with locations across the country. Individuals interested in
