On Monday, Camping World announced they won a bid for $38 million to acquire the assets of Gander Mountain. Lemonis said he will close at least half of the Gander Mountain existing stores. Gander Mountain filed for bankruptcy in March.
It’s not clear what other stores will stay open or close, Lemonis told Twitter fans he would try and keep people updated as soon as he knows more.Â
I will update what stores will continue here over the next 30 days @GanderMtn - we will follow the path to saving jobs and profitability
