Cabela’s Incorporated plans to open a store in Farmington, Utah in the greater Salt Lake City area by spring, 2016.
Construction of the 72,000-square-foot store is scheduled to begin next year in the newly planned Park Lane Commons development adjacent to Station Park on the west side of Interstate 15 near the intersection of Station Parkway and Park Lane.
Cabela’s expects to employ approximately 175 full-time, part-time and seasonal employees at the store, most of whom will come from Farmington and the surrounding area.
The store will become Cabela’s second retail location in Utah, joining the 150,000-square-foot Lehi store opened in 2005. Additionally, Cabela’s is constructing a new 600,000-square-foot distribution center in Tooele that is expected to begin full operations in summer 2015.
“Utah is a great place for the outdoors and for Cabela’s,” said Tommy Millner, Cabela’s Chief Executive Officer. “We have a wonderful store in Lehi and are thrilled to be adding a second store location and state-of-the art distribution center to better serve our loyal customers.”
Cabela’s currently operates 64 stores across North America and has announced plans to open an additional 20 locations over the next three years.
