Corpus Christi Officially Selected as Expansion City for Bass Pro Shops

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX-Mayor Paulette Guajardo and the City of Corpus Christi are excited to announce that the city has been selected as an expansion city for the nationally renowned retailer Bass Pro Shops.

For over 50 years, Bass Pro Shops has been the ultimate destination for hunting, fishing, and outdoor enthusiasts nationwide. With Corpus Christi's deep-rooted passion for outdoor activities and our unparalleled natural beauty, we have the opportunity to become the premier location for those who love to explore and enjoy nature.

"As Mayor, I am eager to welcome Bass Pro Shops to Corpus Christi," said Mayor Paulette Guajardo. "Bass Pro Shops serves as a catalyst for growth across the nation, and I look forward to seeing this development come to fruition for the people of Corpus Christi."

Bass Pro Shops will play a critical role in supporting Corpus Christi's economy, creating jobs, and boosting tourism while reinforcing the city's appeal as a hub for outdoor recreation along the Texas coast.

"Our stores are very special," said Michael Dunham, Real Estate Consultant for Bass Pro Shops. "We have an in-house team of architects and designers. There are no two stores alike. Each store is uniquely built to pay tribute to the heritage of this region."
