Carrollton, Kentucky – Tractor Supply Company has begun construction in Carrollton. Construction on the store, located at 324 Floyd Drive, began late December with a goal of opening in the spring.
Tractor Supply will serve as a one-stop shop for the Carrollton community’s farmers, livestock and pet owners, ranchers, part-time and hobby farmers, gardeners, homeowners, tradesmen and others.
The Carrollton Tractor Supply plans to hire 12 to 15 employees with firsthand knowledge and expertise in caring for pets, livestock and land.
“We’re not just building a store, we’re building a team that understands the needs of the Carrollton community,” said District Manager Ben Gillette. “At Tractor Supply, we carry products that support the lifestyle our customers lead, the land they own and the animals in their care, so whether you are someone who raises horses and pets, runs a hobby farm or just enjoys the rural lifestyle, we’ll be there to make sure you have all the tools you need.”
At the store, customers will be able to shop a wide selection of products at a great value including workwear and boots, tractor and trailer parts and accessories, lawn and garden supplies, sprinkler and irrigation parts, power tools, fencing, welding and pump supplies, riding mowers and more. The Carrollton store will also carry a wide variety of food and supplies for pets, equine and livestock, as well as a pet wash station where customers will have access to professional grade wash bays, grooming tables and tools.
The Tractor Supply team will also seek to support pet adoption initiatives, 4-H and FFA, county fairs and livestock shows.
Bunnell Hill Construction will construct the 19,097-square-foot retail space. The store plans include a sales floor, external support service area and pet wash station.
The store opening, which is expected to occur in the spring, will kick off with a four-day Grand Opening celebration, during which customers can sign up for Tractor Supply’s new Neighbor’s Club loyalty program. By registering, members will receive member-only offers, birthday offers, personal purchase summaries and receipt-free returns.
