ST LOUIS, MO., JUNE 22, 2012 — AT&T* has opened a new retail store in Creve Coeur to serve the growing number of customers using and shopping for smartphones, tablets, connected devices and advanced wireless and home products and services. The new store, located at 11600 Olive Boulevard, is nearly 5,000 square feet—almost twice the size of its former location in Creve Coeur.

To celebrate the new store, a grand opening event and ribbon-cutting ceremony was held at the store with the Creve Coeur-Olivette Chamber of Commerce today at 10 a.m.  On Saturday, June 23, customers will have the opportunity to register to win a Jawbone Jambox wireless speaker and tickets to a St. Louis Cardinals game.**

“We are focused on making our customers’ experience exceptional, and for our retail stores, that begins with a convenient location, inviting store layout and helpful, knowledgeable staff,” said Nancy Garvey, vice president and general manager for AT&T in the Greater Midwest Region. “Whether you’re shopping for personal use, your business or just for fun, we’re here to help you find the right solution. Our newer and bigger retail store is another example of our commitment and investment in the Creve Coeur community.”

AT&T retail stores offer an open, interactive environment where shoppers can get hands-on with products and services and expert technology assistance from trained consultants. Knowledgable AT&T representatives can help you find the devices, apps and services that fit your needs, provide product demonstrations and answer any questions.

You can test-drive new devices and services, including the latest 4G LTE*** smartphones and tablets and AT&T U-verse^® TV, the fastest growing TV provider in the U.S. You can also try out various wireless apps, such as AT&T Navigator, which provides GPS  navigation with turn-by-turn directions, or AT&T Family Map, a family locator service designed to help give parents peace of mind.

AT&T stores are designed for fast service. Reps can often complete your purchase of an accessory or complete certain account updates from anywhere in the store on a tablet. The new store includes a Device Support Center, which offers same-day, face-to-face warranty and technical support to help you get mobile again.  

 “AT&T's continued investment in its St. Louis-area wireless network—combined with the expanded retail store in Creve Coeur—underscore a firm commitment to our area’s economic growth," said Missouri State Senator John Lamping. "I applaud AT&T's continued investment in the community, as it benefits both local businesses and consumers alike."

Creve Coeur store hours are Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Saturday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday, noon to 5 p.m. AT&T owns and operates more than 20 retail locations in the St. Louis metro area.
