Shopko Development Plans - Photo from the City of Sheboygan

The community of Sheboygan continues to grow and add businesses with a new one to be added to the former property owned and operated by Shopko. Jiffy Lube will be setting up a location in the former parking lot of Shopko and is located just south of the Applebee’s at 526 S Taylor Drive. Jiffy Lube provides automobile maintenance services like oil change, battery, brakes, engine, filters, fluids, suspension, inspections, tires, and more. Development is scheduled to start in March/April 2023, with a scheduled completion of the business slated for September 2023.
The city’s original plan for the location was to install a fast-food location, but due to the combination of location visibility along with traffic patterns in the area surrounding the location, fast-food chains have balked at proposals to locate there. The former Shopko building is now being renovated in order to house Hobby Lobby and Ross Dress for Less. Ross Dress for Less is scheduled to open this fall, while the high number of new stores in the area has pushed back Hobby Lobby’s reopening tentatively to the first quarter of 2023.
