Sportsman’s Warehouse at River City Marketplace in North Jacksonville officially opens Dec. 2.
The outdoor specialty retailer, which began a soft opening Nov. 21, is at 13075 City Square Drive, No. 107, next to Burlington. It is in part of what was once Gander Mountain.
Store hours are 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday-Saturday and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday. It is closed for Thanksgiving.
The city issued a permit in August for Cameron Construction of Salt Lake City to improve 39,968 square feet of space at a cost of almost $2.1 million.
The company said it is “focused on meeting the everyday needs of the seasoned outdoor veteran, the first-time participant, and everyone in between.”
“Our mission is to provide outstanding gear and exceptional service to inspire outdoor memories. We offer a one-stop shopping experience that equips our customers with the right hunting, shooting, fishing, and camping gear to maximize their enjoyment of the outdoors.”
Its annual Securities and Exchange Commission filing said the stores maintain a consistent floor layout that “promotes an ‘easy-in, easy-out’ shopping experience.”
“All of our stores feature wide aisles, high ceilings, visible signage and central checkouts with multiple registers,” it says.
They are “designed in a ‘no frills’ warehouse format that welcomes customers directly from or on the way to an outdoor activity.”
It is the second Sportsman’s Warehouse in Florida. The first is in Lady Lake north of Orlando.
