 PROFILE
See Dick's shoppers run, putt, dunk, dribble -- and buy. Fast-growing Dick's Sporting Goods operates more than 100 stores in 20 states in the eastern US. Dick's stores average about 50,000 sq. ft. and contain smaller shops featuring sporting goods, apparel, and footwear for leisure pursuits ranging from football and golf to hunting and camping. The company also sells online. Dick Stack opened his first store in 1948 with $300 from his grandmother's cookie jar; the chain is now headed by his son, Ed. Dick's is owned by the Stack family and private investors, including French retailer Carrefour and the Vulcan Northwest venture capital firm.
