By ACN Staff
National sporting goods retailer Hibbett Sports, Inc has opened its newest store in Little Elm. The new Hibbett store opened at 2700 East Eldorado Parkway, and will employ approximately eight full and part-time team members.
Announcing the opening, Nissan Joseph, President and Chief Operating Officer of Hibbett Sports, noted, " Little Elm, Texas, is a great fit for our company. We believe this convenient new location in the Little Elm Towne Crossing will be a win-win for Hibbett and our customers."
Texas has been a target for Hibbett Sports expansion for several years now. With the addition of the Little Elm location, the company has 69 stores open in Texas. Of those stores, Longview was the first to open in 1998.
Hibbett Sports stocks a large selection of athletic shoes as well as other sports equipment and apparel, including a wide variety of baseball and softball equipment. "With the buying power of a national company, we offer our customers the convenience of buying the best in sports right in their own neighborhoods," said Joseph. "And we extensively train our employees to make sure they can provide superior service to our customers."
The Little Elm location joins a growing number of Hibbett stores in the area, including the stores in Irving and Sherman.
In business since 1945, Hibbett Sports operates over 690 sporting goods stores in small to mid-sized markets, predominantly in the Sunbelt, Mid-Atlantic and the lower Midwest. The Company’s primary store format is Hibbett Sports, a 5,000-square-foot store located in dominant strip centers and enclosed malls. Each store typically lies within 150 miles of another Hibbett Sports location.
