Tandy Leather Factory opens first new store in 2011

14/06/2011
Specialist leather retail and wholesale group Tandy Leather Factory has opened a new retail store in Orem, Utah. This is the first new store opening in 2011 and brings the number of Tandy Leather retail stores to 77.

Chief executive, Jon Thompson, commented: “We have two stores in Salt Lake City and one to the north in Roy, and all are performing very well. Opening in the Provo area gives us the opportunity to further expand business to the south of the city. While our 2011 store opening plans are focused on international locations, we always consider domestic locations that have a good chance of being successful in the current economic environment and we believe this is one of those locations.”
