Coulee Wall Variety Store is a well-established general department store located in Grand Coulee Washington. This is the only department store available in the area and sits 60 to 75 miles from any similar stores. The store draws customers from many small towns nearby with a population base of around 6,000 people and during the summer tourists from all over the world come in to see the Grand Coulee Dam. Among regular visitors, the store has become a must-see destination.
The store currently boasts an inventory of 20,000+ items, so it meets almost everyone's needs. The local clientele is friendly and rewarding to serve.
The store building sits between a Safeway store and the only Hardware store in the area, so drive-by business is generated every day.
The landlord is wonderful to work with and maintains the building perfectly.
