Exciting New Outdoor Apparel Store Opens in Columbia!

Columbia, can you feel the buzz in the air? A fresh new destination for outdoor enthusiasts has just sprung up in your neighborhood! Orvis, a beloved name in outdoor apparel, has officially opened its doors in the charming Cross Hill Market shopping center, right at 702 Cross Hill Road. This shiny new store is more than just a place to grab some gear; it’s a community hub for outdoor adventurers and those who love to embrace nature.

Grand Opening Celebration Details

While the store is already welcoming customers, they’re planning a spectacular grand opening celebration, set to run from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on October 25-27. Visitors can look forward to exciting giveaways, fantastic sales, and, of course, some tasty refreshments throughout the weekend. But that’s not all! A portion of the proceeds during the celebration will be contributed to Congaree Riverkeeper, a fantastic nonprofit dedicated to advocating for the protection of rivers and streams in the Midlands area. How cool is that?

About Orvis

Now, let’s take a moment to appreciate Orvis. Established back in 1856 and based in Vermont, this store has become a leading name in outdoor clothing and gear. Whether you’re into fly fishing, hiking, or just want to spoil your furry friends with some great canine products, Orvis has you covered. Fans of the brand will be thrilled to know that there are also stores in Charleston and Greenville, making South Carolina a proud home for Orvis.

The Location

So, why did Orvis choose Columbia? According to Jason Williams, the director of real estate at Orvis, “Columbia has been a focus for us for several years as an opportunity to further expand our footprint in South Carolina, and Cross Hill was our preference for several reasons: it’s active, energetic and close to our core customers.” It’s clear that they see the potential in this vibrant locale!

Located near the bustling intersection of Devine Street and Garners Ferry Road, Cross Hill Market is a well-known shopping hotspot. The plaza includes a Whole Foods grocery store, the savory Midwood Smokehouse barbecue restaurant, and the delightful Basil Thai Cuisine, among others. Plus, it’s super convenient with 29,000 cars per day traveling along Devine Street and 46,000 cars on Garners Ferry Road. Talk about a prime location!

Join the Fun!

If you’re in the Columbia area, mark your calendars for October 25-27. Whether you’re a seasoned outdoor enthusiast or just curious to check out the new spot, the grand opening at Orvis promises to be a delightful experience. Enjoy some refreshments, browse the fantastic outdoor gear, and feel good knowing that your shopping will help support local river conservation through Congaree Riverkeeper.

Let’s celebrate the joys of the great outdoors together! With its stylish new store, Orvis is ready to make waves in the Columbia community, and we can’t wait to see how they inspire us all to enjoy nature a little more.
