SIKESTON -- The initial group of stores which will locate in the Sikeston Factory Outlet complex was announced this week by Philip Boyer, president of Boyer Construction Co., developer of the new center.

"A total of 21 stores have agreed to locate in the new center," said Boyer. "The initial stores are expected to open in May of this year."

The 116,000 square foot outlet shopping center will be located adjacent to the junction of Interstate 55 and Interstate 57, and will eventually include 35 nationally known manufacturers.
