Welcome to The General Store, an emblem of tradition infused with today’s vibrant consumer experience. Our journey began in 1946, nestled in the heart of Spokane, where we laid the foundation of a legacy built on quality, variety, and unwavering commitment to our community.
We’re more than just a store; we’re a generational family business that understands the fabric of local life. As you step through our doors, you’re not just a customer—you’re part of a story that spans over seven decades. Each of our locations, from the iconic flagship to our bustling Outposts in Spokane Valley and Liberty Lake, are curated to reflect the evolving needs and tastes of our neighbors—because that’s what you are to us, neighbors and friends. In every aisle and on every shelf, you’ll find a breadth of selections that celebrate the convenience of the good old days with the flair of modern retail.
Our Apparel, Automotive, Toys, Ace Hardware, and Sporting Goods departments are not just sections of our store; they are portals to your passions and gateways to your goals. Whether you’re dressing for success or play, tuning up your car, indulging in fun and games, or embracing the call of the wild, The General Store is your starting point.
The General Store is where traditions are treasured, and new memories are made. We invite you to revel in our rich history while experiencing the ease of shopping.
