The Salvation Army cuts the ribbon and opens doors to its new Family Store at 3320 Research Way in Carson City this Thursday, Jan. 11, at 9 a.m.
“We are expecting people to be lined up waiting to shop the store,” said Major Charles Fowler of the Salvation Army, Reno Corps. “We will have 100 percent new (to the store) merchandise for sale.”
The event includes free early morning coffee and donuts for people waiting to shop upon the grand opening, the 9 a.m. ribbon cutting celebration, hot dogs and balloons at lunch time and a prize wheel where customers can win coupons and merchandise.
The ribbon cutting celebration for the new Salvation Army Family Store will be attended local dignitaries including Major Fowler of the Salvation Army, Reno Corps, and representatives from Shaheen Beauchamp Builders, general contractor on the building.
The public is invited as well to enjoy a coffee and a donut before exploring the new store that is packed with merchandise. The store will be offering special sales and discounts throughout the weekend and on Martin Luther King Day, Monday.
The grand opening begins on Thursday, Jan. 11 at 9 a.m, at 3320 Research Way. The former building was located on East Winnie Lane.
The Salvation Army is the first tenant in what may be the first speculative warehouse building completed in Carson City in nearly a decade. The 28,500-square-foot building, located at 3320 Research Way, has 10,000 square feet of space that can be divided down into smaller units still available for lease.
The $3.5 million building is completed and ready for quick occupancy. The building is well suited for warehouse or shop space and the location is right off I-580 with easy access on and off the freeway via College Parkway and high visibility to vehicles passing by on the freeway, according to Jeff Shaheen of Shaheen Beauchamp Builders, general contractors on the project.
Architecture and design for 3320 Research Way was completed by Joey Lassonde Design and Resource Concepts Inc. John Uhart Commercial Real Estate is the broker on the building. For leasing information, contact John Uhart at (775) 884-1896.
