The Port Orchard Les
Schwab will move from Bay Street to Sedgwick Road early next
spring.
Work has already begun on a 12,000-square-foot new tire center across from Fred Meyer.
Les Schwab Assistant Manager Jim Flinner said the Bay Street center had become outdated.
“The company saw our building was older,” he said. “It’s hard to take care of our customers here.”
The new center will be roomier and allow easier access for drivers. The building is being constructed on a 2.7-acre lot and will feature eight garage bays.
“It’s going to be a really nice facility,” Flinner said.
Les Schwab expects to move south to Sedgwick in mid-April. Flinner said no decisions have been made on what will happen with the 1216 Bay Street property, which Les Schwab owns.
