Those in Lloydminster looking forward to buying in bulk and enjoying the occasional reasonably priced hotdog will not need to wait much longer. Costco Wholesale’s newest location at 1703 75th Avenue in Lloydminster, Alta. will hold its grand opening on Nov. 19. In its announcement, the company said the location will support 200 jobs. The warehouse will feature a pharmacy, hearing aid centre, a liquor store, an 18-pump gas station and 800 parking spaces. The Lloydminster warehouse represents the chain’s 19th location in Alberta. The new warehouse is just under four kilometres away from the Alberta/Saskatchewan provincial boundary. Saskatchewan currently hosts three Costco warehouses; two in Saskatoon and one in Regina. However, a second location is currently under construction in Regina’s Westerra neighbourhood.
