Home-décor-furniture chain Pier 1 Imports has opened its 20th Connecticut store with at least two dozen workers at South Windsor’s The Promenade Shops at Evergreen Walk shopping center.
The 9,190-square-foot store at 69 Evergreen Way opened Monday and will average 25 to 28 workers year-round, depending on the season, the Fort Worth, Texas, retailer said Tuesday.
Pier 1 said the new location features its new store concept introduced in fall 2011. The design relies on natural-colored floor tiles, rustic ceiling elements, enhanced store lighting and lit wall shelving units to help customers visualize how products will look in their homes.
