The company has announced that it will be opening a 90,000sq ft store at Eastview Mall in Victor, New York, located some 20 miles south of Rochester near the intersection of I-90 and I-490.
“We are incredibly proud to welcome a retailer of this calibre to our community,” said Victor town supervisor Jack Marren. “The addition of Bass Pro not only revitalises a key retail space at Eastview Mall but also strengthens our reputation as a top destination for shopping and leisure. We are excited about the economic impact and increased foot traffic this will bring to this area.”
As is the case with all Bass Pro Shop buildouts, the Springfield, Missouri-based retailer will endow the Victor store with a signature design.
“Whether it’s taking a hike on one of the picturesque trails and seeking adventures throughout the Finger Lakes region, exploring the wooded hillside scene and wetland areas in Fishers Park, or seeking out the wildlife or fishing at Lehigh Crossing Park,” said the company’s press release on the new location, “Bass Pro Shops and its team of expert outfitters will be ready to help make outdoor dreams come true.”
It will also, as is its usual pledge, donate more than 10 per cent of the store’s earnings to support conservation efforts in the local community.
