Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This for-sale retail site includes two separate structures offered as a single property, formerly home to Outdoors, Inc. The opportunity is positioned as an established storefront environment on a high-visibility corridor.

The property sits along Poplar Avenue in East Memphis between Estate Road and White Station Drive, where it benefits from visibility to passing vehicles with over 29,000 vehicles per day and approximately 188 feet of frontage. The location is described as just minutes from I-240, supporting access to Memphis and surrounding areas.

With CMU1 zoning, the property is positioned for multiple retail and other commercial uses, making it suitable for operators seeking a prominent retail address with substantial frontage. The two-structure layout can support tenant flexibility for showroom and storefront concepts, or it can be evaluated for redevelopment scenarios consistent with the allowed zoning. The site’s established retail presence and direct exposure to a busy roadway corridor are key practical considerations for prospective buyers and tenants evaluating a commercial location in East Memphis.
