Costco will open a membership warehouse in Redmond at 8 a.m. Nov. 11. The 155,000-square-foot warehouse is located at 7725 188th Ave. N.E., at the intersection of Northeast 76th Street and 188th Avenue.

“We are thrilled to be bringing Costco’s low warehouse prices to the residents of Redmond,” said warehouse manager John Bartlett. “They have been asking us to open here for a long time, and we already have made an impact on the local job market. We look forward to contributing to the community in many ways.”

Previously, Redmond residents had to drive approximately five miles west to Kirkland, 11 miles northwest to Woodinville or 11 miles southwest to Issaquah to shop at Costco.

In the Costco tradition, the Redmond warehouse will offer quality, brand-name and private-label merchandise at incredible values. Costco helps businesses save money on supplies and on items for resale, and provides a wide range of products and services for personal use as well.

This new Costco location will feature a variety of convenient specialty departments, including a gas station with diesel, fresh bakery, fresh meat, fresh produce, fresh deli with rotisserie chicken, optical department with independent doctor of optometry, photo center, pharmacy, tire center, hearing aid center, food court and beer, liquor and fine wine. Members also can save on Costco services such as travel and auto buying.

This 31st Costco warehouse in Washington will be the 504th in the U.S. and 722nd worldwide. Costco has 86 million cardholders throughout the U.S., Canada, Mexico, England, Scotland, Wales, Spain, South Korea, Taiwan, Japan and Australia.
