BHI Announces Retail Store

Opening Near Camp Dawson

BHI-15
Blackheart International has announced the opening of its first
retail store on Route 7 Kingwood Plaza, Kingwood, West Virginia, in
the Corner Mall at Kingwood Plaza shopping center. The Kingwood
location was a logical choice for the company's initial foray into brick-
and-mortar retailing due to its close proximity to Camp Dawson—one
of the key Army training centers on the East Coast.
As with Blackheart International's online store, the new retail
outlet will stock a vast assortment of military and tactical equipment
from many of the industry's top manufacturers, as well as exclusive
BHI manufactured items—from their custom-authored publications
to BHI's growing line of proprietary weapon accessories. In addition
to off-the-shelf purchases, the Blackheart International retail store
will offer custom logistics solutions for individual soldiers and law
enforcement officers to entire units and agencies.
The store will be open from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through
