Battlefield Mall picks up Coach store

The store opened June 27 near Starbucks in the mall, according to store manager Becky Auman. Hours are 10 a.m.–9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and noon to 6 p.m. Sunday.

In addition to Auman, Coach locally employs three managers and 19 part-time associates.

Though most known for its handbag line, Coach offers other leather goods such as billfolds, as well as jewelry, scarves, shoes and cologne, Auman said.

“Of course, Coach is a very popular brand – we’re very happy to have them here,” Battlefield Mall Marketing Manager Christine Moses said. “This fits right along with what we’ve been doing with the mall for the past four years, (which is) to better serve our female shoppers.”
