In line with its efforts to strengthen store base, DICK'S Sporting Goods Inc. (DKS - Free Report) announced plans to inaugurate a store in New York. It will be located at Jefferson Valley Mall in Yorktown Heights.

Notably, this store will mark DICK’s Sporting’s 40th store in New York, while taking its countrywide store count to 665.
The latest New York store will offer over 40 in-store services provided by DICK'S certified PROS in sports and outdoor specialties like golf, bike and fishing. Additionally, these locations will house Under Armour Inc. (UA - Free Report) and Nike Inc. (NKE - Free Report) shops. The outlets will also accommodate athletic clothing and footwear, along with the latest equipment for team sports, fitness, camping, hunting and fishing.
Moreover, in order to attract customers to the store during the celebration period, DICK’S Sporting has announced a range of lucrative giveaways.
The company will distribute free Adidas (ADDYY - Free Report) Go-To Performance T-shirts to the first 100 people in queue on the opening day. Also, the early birds will get an opportunity to open the DICK'S Sporting Goods Gift Locker on all three days of celebrations.
