About
Cabela’s, founded in 1961 and now part of Bass Pro Shops, is a major U.S. retailer specializing in hunting, fishing, camping, and outdoor gear. With stores across the country and a robust online presence, Cabela’s offers a wide range of products from firearms and apparel to kayaks and optics. While the company is American-based and employs thousands of workers domestically, most of its private-label products and gear are imported and not manufactured in the USA. Although many of their products are not American-made, you can find the hidden gems that are on their website in the product descriptions.
Cabela’s continues to support American outdoor traditions and conservation initiatives through its partnerships and sponsorships, but it is primarily a retailer rather than a manufacturer. Customers seeking made-in-USA items can sometimes find American-made options within its larger catalog, but the brand as a whole does not focus on domestic production.
