The original fort was registered as a business in 1954 and purchased by the current owners in 1985. The Fort was originally a convenience store that happened to have a hand full of fuel pumps and a small restaurant in the back. After the purchase the business grew faster than the owners expected, so in the 90's they added the grocery and deli departments. The owners also incorporated a Montana State Liquor store and expanded the gun selection. In 2010 the owners saw their biggest renovation. They updated public restrooms, expanded the fuel pumps with a large canopy and added more selection of fuel types. Inside the store they built on a new wing just for liquor sales and added a wine cellar with over 300 different wines to choose from. This shift gave them the necessary room for what is now the sporting goods department with huge selection of firearms to choose from. The owner is willing to help get the new buyers started.
