The new stores will be concentrated in the Midwest and Southeast, and will be located in:
- Beckley, W.Va.;
- Kingsport, Tenn.;
- Bloomington, Ind.;
- Selma, N.C.;
- Ft. Myers, Fla.;
- Birmingham, Ala.;
- Springfield, Ohio;
- Bradenton, Fla.; and
- Bulverde, Texas.
“Academy Sports + Outdoors is excited to continue our company growth with nine new stores this fall, making shopping with us more convenient than ever in existing markets and providing new customers with the best localized assortment of sports apparel, footwear, equipment and outdoor gear,” said Eric Friederich, SVP of Retail Operations at Academy in a statement.
In July 2023 Academy expanded its use of Revionics’ pricing software to optimize customer-centric pricing.
