Goodwill to construct new store / offices in Post Falls

The Inland Northwest area chapter of Goodwill Industries is continuing to grow both their thrift store chain and their non profit workforce and family services programs. As you may recall Goodwill recently announced plans to be one of two tenants coming to a re-developed former Albertson's store on Northwest Blvd in Spokane , and now they also moving forward with a brand new center and store on the western side of Post Falls.


The new Goodwill facility at Post Falls is under construction now at 4040 E. 16th St , at the corner of Hwy 41 & 16th . The new center will replace a leased space on Seltice Way elsewhere in Post Falls and will have over 24,000 square feet of space. The project is estimated to cost over $ 3 million and should be ready for opening in the Spring of 2017. Once complete Goodwill anticipates creating 15 or so new jobs with the new facility and all employees from the current location will be transferred over.

The facility will house a Goodwill thrift store, in addition to offices of the workforce & family services division of Goodwill, these programs today do not have office in Post Falls , prompting local users to have to travel to Coeur d' Alene or Spokane. The Goodwill Workforce & Family services office will include job placement services, a career center and support staff. Like all other Goodwill store sites, a place to make donations to the non profit will also occupy a section of the new building.
