While Orem residents have been living their lives the past few years, the people at Dillard’s have been spending their time building a new anchor store at University Place.
The new location was previously space for stores like ZCMI and Macy’s. It has been a prominent location both at the old University Mall and the new redesign of the University Place campus. The new Dillard’s anchor will add an upgraded styling to the mall and its retailers.
On Wednesday, Dillard’s will hold its grand opening and ribbon cutting with guests, door prizes and more after a soft opening for the location on Friday.
Robert Glodowski, store manager, said the new mall anchor has 160,000 square feet of space to sell and display products. From head to toe, the store is ready to serve its customers with some brands new to Utah County.
“This mall is amazing, this area is amazing. We are bringing an increased assortment of brands and better brands,” Glodowski said. “Provo was a C location, but Orem will be an A store.
