Super Target store to feature variety of items
By Tara Trenary
Kansan staff writer
There's a new store on the block, and it promises to be super.
It's not another grocery store, nor is it another all-purpose store. It's both — the new Super Target.
The Lawrence Super Target is only the second one in the Midwest. The other is in Omaha, Neb.
The Dayton-Hudson Corp., parent company to Mervyn's, Dayton's, Marshall Fields, Everyday Heroes and Target, broke ground for the new store at the beginning of the year. The grand opening is scheduled for Oct. 8.
"We are really happy to be in this community," said Brenda Gabrick, team relations lead for the new Super Target. 3201 S.I. Iowa St.
Gabrick said that Lawrence was ideal for a Super Target because of the combination of the University of Kansas, commuters from Kansas City and potential customers from other areas..
Doug Colyer, general store manager of Kmart, 3108 S. Iowa St., agreed that the new Super Target would bring shoppers to Lawrence. He hopes Kmart would reap the benefits of this new traffic as well.
Wal-Mart personnel declined to comment on the new store.
The Super Target will offer a combination of goods and services unlike that of most other Lawrence stores.
Target is an all-purpose center and a grocery store, and it will be open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to midnight.
The all-purpose center will have a clothing department, an optical center, a one-hour photo center, a Capital Federal Bank and a floral center that can send flowers throughout the United States.
The grocery store will have a food court with a Pizza Hut Express, a Taco Bell Express, a sushi bar, an Asian food bar and a bakery.
A guest service area and drive.
through pick-up will be provided for customers. Gabrick said.
Through a group called the Good Neighbor Committee, Super Target plans to give back to the Lawrence community, she said. The store will give 5 percent of its pre-tax dollars to the community. It also will participate in Habitat for Humanity.
Super Target also will sponsor the KU women's soccer team, the soccer stadium and Late Night with Roy Williams, Gabrick said.
"We want to partner with KU as much as we can," she said.
Joanna Bidnick, Bonner Springs senior, said she had never been to a Target store but that her roommate had told her about them.
"I'm excited about it," Bidnick said.
"I'll try it out."
The Super Target is hiring for overnight and parcel pick-up positions, and it has developed a business college program for college graduates to train for management positions.
