Big retailer entering Nevada market
Wednesday, March 14, 2001 | 11:18 a.m.
Kohl's Corp., a Menomonee Falls, Wis.-based department store chain, said it plans to enter the Nevada market in 2003, but hasn't specified where in the state it will open stores.
"We haven't made any announcement within the specific market of Nevada," said Susan Henderson, Kohl's spokeswoman. " We are looking to be a national retailer and will expand into the southwest part of the country in 2003 starting with Southern California, then eventually Nevada, which has a lot of high-growth potential."
She said Kohl's, which went public in 1992, provides mostly apparel name brands at competitive prices and its competitors include JC Penney Co. Inc. and Sears Roebuck and Co.
The company had 320 stores nationwide as of Feb. 3, compared with 259 stores at the same time last year. Kohl's plans to open 60 stores in 2001 and 70 stores in 2002.
