what kind of a chain is ShopKO? is it a regional discount store. I know that the era of the regionals are gone because Ames, Bradlees, CAldor, Rich's, Stuart's and Kings are gone and now long gone.

It's a discount chain and it's only in small cities across the west

That arial photo is of store 176 in Peoria, IL.  It closed earlier this year.

At one time we had two Shopko locations in Evansville Indiana. They were both housed in former Woolco buildings.
They had decent items, but the stores never had a fighting chance with competition from Wal Mart and Target.  All four of our K Marts has shut down as well.  :no:

They're building a new store in Sumaco, WI and some in the Milwaukee area pretty soon.  The stores ShopKo opened in Illinois and Indiana never did too well.  No one was familiar with the ShopKo name.  176 in Peoria was a really nice store, built from the ground up.  It's a shame it closed.

Shopko has a new logo as of 2007.

How Shopko Got its Soul Back

ShopKo is on opening track again.

VIDEO: Enthusiasm abounds as Shopko opens doors in North Branch

I've been to the new ShopKo prototype store in Suamico, Wisconsin, and I was amazed by how upscale it was. It was like a Target crossed with a Kohl's. I especially like the way it was set up.

Chute Gerdeman Retail - the firm responsible for Shopko's new style.

Don't be afraid to discuss this topic.
