OAK RIDGE, Tenn., Dec. 08, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores, Inc. (NASDAQ: SHOS ) will open its newest Tennessee Sears Hometown Store on December 8 at 142 Fairbanks Road in Oak Ridge.
The Oak Ridge location marks the 17th opening of a new Sears Hometown Store this year and the 18th opening of a new store across all of Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores formats. Unlike most retail concepts, Sears Hometown Stores combine the value, selection and services associated with larger retail stores but are owned and operated by a member of the local community.
“Our store is opening at just the right time to fulfill all your holiday shopping needs,” said Leslie Agron, owner of the Sears Hometown Store in Oak Ridge. “We are providing the community with a large selection of products at competitive pricing – something that wasn’t available previously. In addition, shoppers will find top-notch customer service. Visitors can stop by to check out our showroom, browse our onsite internet kiosks, and work with our appliance experts to find the product that best suits their needs.”
This unique store format allows customers in small communities to have access to the great products and brands usually found only in Sears stores. For instance, the new Sears Hometown Store in Oak Ridge is the only place in town where customers can find an incredible selection of the top appliance brands such as Kenmore®, Maytag®, KitchenAid®, Whirlpool®, Bosch®, Frigidaire® and GE®, plus a large assortment of lawn and garden equipment, Craftsman® tools, fitness equipment, electronics, mattresses and more.
The Oak Ridge team is excited to provide customers with professional advice, exceptional service and real-time price checks to make sure they receive the guaranteed lowest price. For instance, if a product is not available in-stores, Sears Hometown Store associates can order customers any product from the entire merchandise selection offered by Sears, including apparel, footwear, jewelry and much more. Customers also have the option to order products online and pick them up in the store without a shipping charge. The Oak Ridge store also offers Sears Nationwide Service, Parts and Installation.
