Shopko Stores Operating Co. will open five new Shopko Hometown stores in late fall of this year. The stores will be located in Afton, Wyo.; St. Peter, Minn.; and Winneconne, Ellsworth and Tomahawk, Wis.

The Hometown format was developed to be Shopko’s growth vehicle going forward, specifically serving smaller rural communities and combining a broad offering of general merchandise and everyday consumables with pharmacy and optical centers. The new stores will range between 25,000 square feet and 35,000 square feet, compared with Shopko’s full-size discount stores measuring 80,000 to 90,000 square feet.

The planned openings will bring the total of Shopko Hometown locations to 181 by the end of 2013.
