Cabela’s Plans Second Store In Kansas

Outdoor outfitter Cabela’s is planning to
open a second retail store in Kansas next year.
The Sidney, Neb.-based company announced the Wichita, Kan.,
location on Tuesday.
Cabela’s says construction should begin this summer on the
80,000-square-foot store in a northeast Wichita shopping center
that is already home to a Super Target.
Cabela’s says the new store will resemble its existing ones from
the outside with log construction and metal roofing. But the store
will use an updated layout and large glass display windows when it
opens in spring 2012.
Most of Cabela’s retail stores have at least 125,000 square
feet, and they are usually free-standing stores near major
highways, like the Kansas City location.
