Galyan's Trading Company was an American sporting goods chain. It was founded in Plainfield, Indiana.
The store began in 1946 as a grocery store, founded by Albert and Naomi Galyan. By the 1960s, the Galyans began selling sporting goods instead.[2] The chain was purchased in 1995 by The Limited.[3][4][5] At the time the chain consisted of only five stores,[6] but grew to 20 by 1999[7] when The Limited sold 60% of the company to investment firm of Freeman, Spogli & Company.[8][9] The company became a publicly traded company when it released its IPO on NASDAQ in 2001.[10] Many of the stores featured rock climbing walls, golf simulators, and archery ranges.[11][12][13][1]
By 2004, Galyan's had 47 stores in 21 states.[1] That same year, the chain was acquired by Dick's Sporting Goods.[14][15][16]
