Charles E. Ramirez for The Detroit News:
Pittsburgh-based Dick’s Sporting Goods said it is closing most Moosejaw stores but will continue to sell outdoor sporting equipment through its Moosejaw.com website. The three brick-and-mortar Moosejaw stores that will remain open are located in Birmingham in Oakland County, Salt Lake City and Bentonville, Arkansas, the company said.
…
The move comes about seven months after DICK’S announced it was acquiring Moosejaw from Walmart.
Walmart bought Moosejaw in 2017 for $51 million.
The story is always the same: Big corp buys smaller corp, closes it down. Online store continues to operate while SEO is still valid for a couple more years while shipping will be consolidated from one warehouse. It’s a shame really, outdoor gear is trendy and the industry is growing right now and these ‘giants of industry’ can’t figure out how to operate local retail stores.
