ADRIAN, Mich., March 14, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- With the recent closing of the Adrian, Michigan Kmart store, the local Sears Hometown Store wants to assure local residents they still have access to several of the Kmart brands they love and need.
Sears Hometown locations operate under Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores, Inc. (NASDAQ: SHOS ), which separated from Sears Holdings Corporation in October 2012 and is a completely separate, publicly-traded company. With this, the closings of the Adrian Kmart location and Toledo Sears store are in no way a reflection of the health of the Adrian Sears Hometown Store. Plus, 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.
“We want to assure our customers that we’re here to stay, and we’re going to continue providing the Adrian community with the same great products, exceptional customer service and wonderful store experience they have come to expect from us,” said Darren Morley, owner of Sears Hometown Store in Adrian.
The local retailer, which provides customers with access to a full suite of merchandise and services, 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.
“Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores are thriving, and our store is no exception,” Morley added. “We look forward to being a valued community partner in Adrian for many years to come.”
The Adrian Sears Hometown team provides customers with professional advice, exceptional service and real time price checks to make sure customers get the guaranteed lowest prices around. 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 Adrian store also offers Sears Nationwide Service, Parts and Installation.
