“The Twin Cities area is expanding significantly, and we felt like this would be a good opportunity for us to extend our store footprint,” said Tom Willingham, founder of Range USA. “Local officials, contractors and suppliers have told us how excited they are to have us open in the Brooklyn Park community and so are we.”
