Although the headquarters are now in Katy Academy is definitely not "Texas owned". It was purchased by KKR (Kohlberg Kravis Roberts) in 2011 from the Gochman family. Not disparaging that in any way, just wanted to set the record straight. They have since the buyout changed their marketing strategy with many proprietary brands of merchandise.bigge wrote:Guys I work for Academy and we will beat any competitive stores price by 5% we have been in texas since 1938.. we are texas owned and run out of katy.
