ALABAMA OUTDOORS OPENS SUMMER POP UP AT PEPPER PLACE

Alabama Outdoors Celebrated its Opening This Weekend

BIRMINGHAM, AL ‐ Beginning Saturday, May 14th, Alabama Outdoors will provide downtown
Birmingham with its first outdoor gear retail store in more than ten years. They will operate a
summer pop up on Saturdays from 7am – 2pm in the Showrooms building at Pepper Place across
from Cantley & Company. The store will feature both popular and specialty brands such as
Birkenstock, Patagonia, Yeti, Locally Grown, Bote, Arbor Skateboards, their own Alabama
Outdoors brand and more.

Pepper Place is located along the Jones Valley Corridor, the downtown spine of the Red Rock
Ridge & Valley Trail System. Cathy Sloss Jones, President of Sloss Real Estate Company and
developer of the Pepper Place District, is an avid believer in the importance of complete streets,
walkable neighborhoods and sustainable development. “Pepper Place is at the heart of this
expanding green space that is connecting our urban neighborhoods. It is wonderful watching the
business community, residents and farmers market patrons coming to Pepper Place on foot and
bike”, she says, “and, we are so pleased that Alabama Outdoors will be here to reach out to our
growing city center / Lakeview population; a group that embraces this connection to the
environment.”

Alabama Outdoors invests in their community through local organizations promoting outdoor
usage, conservation, access and education, and is excited to further its local outreach by joining
the Pepper Place community. “Being a part of Pepper Place is a wonderful opportunity,” says
Kristy Ward, Director of Operations at Alabama Outdoors, “and we’re excited to be able to
connect with our downtown community in a unique, local atmosphere such as the farmers
market.”

Alabama Outdoors opened for business in Birmingham, Alabama in 1975 with the mission to
provide the highest quality outdoor gear to residents in the surrounding area. Other Birmingham
locations include Homewood, Inverness and Trussville. The company also has stores statewide
in Florence, Huntsville, Montgomery and Mobile. Full product selection is available at its
