Is Academy Sports coming to Jefferson City?
The company offers a unique assortment of quality hunting, fishing and camping equipment and gear in addition to sports and leisure products, footwear, apparel and grills. Customers also find a full range of services, including scope mounting, bore sighting, line winding/spooling and propane exchange. Academy stores carry top national brands such as Nike, Adidas, The North Face, YETI and Carhartt at everyday value prices. Academy also offers a variety of exclusive private label brands, such as Magellan Outdoors, Freely, R.O.W, BCG, H2OX, Mosaic, O’Rageous and Redfield, which cover outdoor apparel and equipment, women’s and men’s clothing and workout attire, fishing gear and water accessories and hunting accessories, respectively.
In addition to offering a wide selection of merchandise, Academy stores provide a fun shopping experience. Academy team members assist shoppers and help them find exactly what they are looking for. Every store offers free services such as grill and bike assembly, scope mounting, bore sighting and line winding/spooling. Additionally, shoppers can purchase state hunting and fishing licenses at Academy outlets.
Academy’s smart responses to market realities helped the chain achieve its growth goals in Texas and beyond. For example, when surveys showed that the majority of Academy customers were men, Gochman responded by introducing lines of women’s casual shoes and clothes, which led to more women purchasing goods in the chain’s outlets. This, along with other initiatives, allowed Academy to become a nationally recognized brand in the 1990s.
