Bass Pro Shops announced plans today for a new destination retail superstore location in South Fayette Township, Pennsylvania, southwest of Pittsburgh.
This newest store will be the company’s third in the state, and the first in western P.A.. The 100,000 square-foot, two-level Outdoor World retail destination will expand its presence and reputation for serving the passionate sportsmen and women of the region, offering a selection of quality products while providing genuine, friendly expert service.
“It’s an honor to serve the sportsmen and women in the Pittsburgh area, with genuine friendly, expert service and to help outfit them for adventures as they enjoy Pennsylvania’s great outdoors,” said angler, conservationist and Bass Pro Shops founder Johnny Morris.
The new location will be part of Newbury Market, which is conveniently located to serve western Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio, offering the widest selection of hunting, fishing and outdoor recreation gear, with an inventory specifically tailored to the region. The retail attraction is expected to open in early 2026.
“We are extremely excited to have such a great and unique retail brand join our Newbury Market development. This one-of-a-kind super retailer will differentiate our project from all others, and will catalyze other one-of-a-kind new to market concepts to join us. We are absolutely thrilled,” said Craig Cozza of Cozza Enterprises, the developer of Newbury Market.
Like all Bass Pro Shops locations, the new store will feature a completely unique custom design. Envisioned as a tribute to the great sporting heritage of the region and a celebration of the sportsmen and women of western Pennsylvania, the store will build on the signature qualities that define the award-winning Bass Pro Shops shopping experience, combining retail with entertainment, outdoor education and conservation.
More than just a fishing and hunting store, the retail destination will offer equipment and clothing for all outdoor adventures, including hiking, backpacking, wildlife viewing, camping and other related outdoor gear. A gift and nature center will feature a wide variety of outdoor-themed and related items, including Big Cedar home and cabin decor and accessories, as well as brands including RedHead, TrueTimber, ASCEND, Worldwide Sportsman and Natural Reflections.
In addition to providing customers with the outdoor products they love, a team of talented artists and craftsmen will design the store’s localized imagery to reinforce its immersive outdoor theme. The signature creativity and attention to detail are hallmarks of every experience from Johnny Morris, who often is referred to as “The Walt Disney of the Outdoors” for his knack of creating immersive experiences that connect people with nature.
Bass Pro Shops is expected to employ more than 130 outfitters at its new South Fayette location, many of whom will come from the local region. Employment information, when available, will be posted at basspro.com/careers.
