In 1973, Max’s son Arthur acquired a Houston surplus retailer, renamed the business Academy Corp., and expanded it to six stores; sporting and outdoor goods were added in 1980. [https://corporate.academy.com/our-history/index.html]\n\nThe company opened its first big-box stores in 1988 and adopted the Academy Sports + Outdoors name in 1995. It expanded beyond Texas into Alabama in 1996, Florida in 1998, and Tennessee and Mississippi in 1999, reaching 50 stores in 2000. David Gochman became president and CEO in 1996.
