KERR COUNTY RETAIL
➤ The Kerrville Daily Times asked its readers what retailer they wanted most to see come to Kerrville and the clear winner was Target. With more than 200 people weighing into the opt-in survey, 59% said they wanted to see the Minneapolis-based retailer open a store in Kerrville. The next two biggest were discounter Ross and retailer Kohl’s. However, on The Kerrville Daily Times’ Facebook page there was a furious write-in vote for Houstonbased sporting good store Academy. Here are some of the comments from readers about the retail environment: ➤ Would like to see a Petsmart, Dillards and Costco. Sure would be nice to spend our money in Kerrville than have to go to San Antonio. Thank you ➤ Target and other big chains will never put a store in a town as small as Kerrville or Fredericksburg. Gotta have a certain population to support it. They are building some small versions in some suburbs. Big ones need hundreds of thousands of people within a 30-mile radius. ➤ I voted for Target but I would like to see Academy.
