Sportswear maker Nike Inc announced the official opening of its Nike Factory Store at Grapevine Mills in Grapevine, Texas.
"Nike is proud to open our newest Factory Store at the Grapevine Mills Outlet mall. The center offers an excellent opportunity to present our brand.

To celebrate the grand opening, Nike awarded a $5,000 cash and product grant to the Boys and Girls Club -- Arlington Branch.

"We are very excited to receive this community grant for our Arlington Branch," Zink said. "The Boys & Girls Clubs have a strong relationship with Nike and share our vision of healthy, active children. We are honored to be a part of this grand opening and we look forward to many opportunities to partner together."
