Dick's Sporting Goods plans to open its first Field & Stream branded store this August in Cranberry Township, Pa., as part of the company's ongoing strategy to drive growth with speciality store concepts. The company also recently opened its first True Runner speciality store in its hometown of Pittsburgh.
Dick's acquired rights to operate retail stores under the 140 year old Field & Stream brand in late 2012. When the company reported fourth quarter results earlier this year indicated it would open two Field & Stream stores focused on outdoor categories and two True Runner locations in 2013. Dick's already operates a large number of stand alone golf stores under the Golf Galaxy banner.
