Basket company opens store at Prime Outlets

The Longaberger Co. has opened a factory store at the Prime Outlets in Jeffersonville.

The store opened to the public on Feb. 17. A grand opening event will be held in March.

The 2,500-square-foot satellite store features Longaberger’s handcrafted baskets, pottery and wrought iron along with other home and lifestyle products, such as specialty foods, dinnerware and candles.

This is the third factory store for Longaberger in Ohio. The company operates its primary factory store at Longaberger Homestead in Frazeysburg, adjacent to its basketmaking facility and an hour east of Columbus. It also opened a satellite factory store at Polaris Towne Center in Columbus in September.

All of the products in the factory store are recently retired from the main product assortment or are featured at Longaberger Homestead. New products – such as Metropolitan Baskets, wall art, decorative pillows and fabric totes – will continue to be available through Longaberger Home Consultants and online at www.longaberger.com.

Store hours at the Prime Outlets location are Monday – Saturday 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
