Bass Pro Shops is a renowned outdoor retail company dedicated to providing customers with quality products and exceptional service. Located at 2703 S Campbell, Springfield, MO, the Service Department is an integral part of the company’s operations, specializing in servicing outdoor equipment such as boats, motors, trailers, and ATV/UTVs. As a respected leader in the outdoor retail industry, Bass Pro Shops focuses on building a strong community among outdoor enthusiasts through world-class customer service and a commitment to quality and integrity. The store offers a product and service-rich environment where both employees and customers can thrive.
