Outdoor Outfitter Cabela’s Opening First Calgary Location

MONDAY REPORT ON RETAILERS

U.S.-BASED CABELA’S INCORPORATED WILL OPEN ITS FIRST LOCATION IN CALGARY THIS THURSDAY

The 70,000 sq. ft. store is at Deerfoot City and is the outdoor retailer’s third location in Alberta and ninth in Canada.

The grand-opening ribbon will be cut by an arrow shot from a bow by Steve Ecklund, Cabela’s ambassador and host of Wild Television Network’s The Edge.

The store will reflect Cabela’s popular store model with log construction, stonework, wood siding and metal roofing. The interior will be designed to surround customers in an outdoor experience, including museum-quality wildlife displays and thousands of outdoor products.

The company has several new stores in the works, including one each in Ottawa, Abbotsford, B.C. and Halifax.
