Tractor Supply Celebrates Grand Opening

City and Chamber of Commerce officials turned out this morning to help Tractor Supply Company celebrate its official grand opening.

The store has been open since November 17, but is celebrating its Easley location today and tomorrow with a big sale, according to Store Manager Owen Wackler. 

The Easley location is Tractor Supply Company’s 28th store in South Carolina and employs 14 team members. The facility is 19,097 square feet, including sales floor and support service space. Construction began on the Easley location in September, Wackler said.

Team members were giving each customer a free Tractor Supply Company Hat as they entered the store this morning.

To celebrate the grand opening of the store, shoppers will receive 10 percent off their first purchase, up to $100, from Nov. 29 – Dec. 2, and can enter to win prizes including store gift cards, pet feed, clothing, power tools, a 22-ton log splitter and a chain saw.

Pet groomers were on hand as part of the grand opening, as well as the Easley Fire Department and therapy horses, Wackler said.

"And a big sale for everybody, that's going on all day today and tomorrow," he said.

Wackler didn't hesitate when asked what sets Tractor Supply Company apart from other retailers.

"Legendary customer service," he said. "We go above and beyond."

City and Chamber officials joined store employees for an official ribbon-cutting.

Easley Chamber President Cindy Hopkins thanked Wackler and Tractor Supply Company for their investment in Easley and presented the company with their official first dollar.

Regular operating hours for the store, located at 339 Rolling Hills Circle in the Easley Town Center shopping Center, are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday.
