Lowe’s opening last location of the year in Texas

Home improvement retailer Lowe's will open its final 2026 location in Texas, marking the fifth location launched in the state this year.

The store, which will open on Nov. 20, is in Willlis and is 95,000 square feet with an additional 26,000 square feet of garden area.

The company has 154 stores in Texas, the highest number of stores of any state, according to an AOL report.

The latest Texas store features redesigned kitchen showroom with larger product displays and signage with QR codes that link to online tools including a budget calculator, a style quiz and 3D visualizer.

Store manager Jacob King has worked at three stores and this will be his first time opening as a store manager.

"I've been with Lowe's for 16 years, and getting the chance to build a new store and team from the ground up is really special," King said in a press release. "There's a lot of growth happening around Willis, but it still has that close-knit community feel."
