Lemonis also says he is going to open a Third Party Logistics company aimed at helping small businesses inside the old Cabelas Distribution Center buildings.

“I believe Sidney, Nebraska is a great center-point on the U.S. map to allow small businesses who have eCommerce businesses to have a 3PL,” said Lemonis. “Great labor, great know-how, great location, and it allows you to tackle the west coast of the U.S. at a very low cost of operating and at a very low cost of distribution.”

Camping World is one of the nations largest RV retailers, with more than 225 locations coast-to-coast.

The Sidney operation is expected to create several hundred jobs and is expected to open sometime within the next 12 to 18 months.
