Superstore planned
- Share via
BASS Pro Shops, a major catalog and online retailer of outdoors equipment, will open its first Southern California mega-showroom in 2007.
No mere sporting goods store, the 180,000-square-foot supercenter planned for Rancho Cucamonga will feature a boat shop, nature center, outdoor apparel, wildlife viewing and gear for backpacking, hunting and fishing, camping and more, plus a 10,000-square-foot restaurant. Bass Pro Shops stores are spectacles that resemble a lodge, museum and retail center.
The company operates 27 stores nationwide and decided to open an Inland Empire store near freeways and growing cities. California has more hunters (855,181) and anglers (3,147,396) than most other states.
