Your answer is right.

In the mountains, you'd probably do well to open a shop selling ski equipment. Near the Great Lakes and the oceans, diving and swimming equipment would sell well.

When opening a sports store, it is important to understand your target market in order to choose the type of sports products you hope to sell. Demographic information plays a crucial role in identifying potential customers and conducting market research. Here are some demographic factors you may want to consider:

1. Age: Knowing the age range of your target market can help you determine what types of sports products they may be interested in. For example, younger customers might be more interested in trendy and fashionable sports attire, while older customers might prefer equipment for recreational sports.

2. Gender: Understanding the gender breakdown of your target market can help you tailor your product selection. Some sports products may be more popular among one gender than the other. For instance, female customers might be more interested in yoga or activewear, while male customers might be more interested in team sports equipment.

3. Nationality: Consider the cultural background and preferences of your target market. Certain sports may be more popular in specific regions or among particular nationalities. This information can help you determine which sports products will be in higher demand.

To gather demographic information, you can utilize various methods such as surveys or market research. Surveys can be conducted online, through mail, or in-store. Collecting data on customers' age, sex, nationality, and other factors will help you create a customer profile.

Once you have this demographic information, you can analyze the data and identify trends or patterns in your target market's preferences. This analysis will provide insights into what new trends your customers may be interested in and what types of sports products they are most attracted to.

In addition to demographic information, it is also helpful to research statistics about the popularity of certain sports or sporting events in your area. This will give you an idea of the demand for specific products and help you make informed decisions about the type of sports products you should stock in your store.

By conducting thorough research and understanding your target market's demographic information, preferences, and current trends, you can make informed decisions about the types of sports products you should sell in your store.
