Dick's Sporting Goods Expanding Distribution Network
Dick’s Sporting Goods will construct an 800,000-square-foot regional distribution center in Fort Worth, Tex., that will service more than 100 Dick’s stores across several states.
The new distribution center will be located on an 89.5-acre site within the Risinger/35 Logistics Park, a development by Hillwood, at Risinger Road and Old Burleson Road. With this facility, Dick’s will pursue sustainability initiatives such as high-efficiency lighting and HVAC, recycled and environmentally friendly construction materials, energy management systems, and recycling programs for corrugate and plastics.
"We're thrilled to announce our plans to build and open a distribution center in Fort Worth," said Sean Whitehouse, Dick's senior vice president of Supply Chain. "This facility will support the rapid growth of our business, including in the state of Texas, and enable more efficient and effective flow of product to athletes whether they shop in-store or online."
The Fort Worth location will join the sporting goods retailer’s existing distribution network that includes facilities in Atlanta, Ga.; Conklin, N.Y.; Goodyear, Ariz.; Plainfield, Ind.; and Smithton, Pa.
Construction on the facility is scheduled to begin early this fall with a groundbreaking, and the building phase is expected to produce more than 800 temporary construction jobs. The facility is expected to open in early 2026.
