Open for Business: Chase Bank

Chase Bank
After opening its first Queen City branch in August 2024, Chase Bank added a second location on July 29 at 2237 E. Sunshine St., said spokesperson Amanda Bolton. For its second branch, the company renovated a building at Sunshine Street and Enterprise Avenue that housed a KFC restaurant which shuttered last year. Bolton declined to disclose startup costs. A Greene County recorder filing shows a warranty deed in August between current property owner JPMorgan Chase Bank and 2237 E Sunshine LLC. The building on the site is roughly 2,900 square feet, according to its Greene County assessor listing. The branch is the 40th Chase Bank to open in Missouri, according to bank officials. Jami Tinker is branch manager for the seven-employee Sunshine Street location, which includes Chase Private Client offices and self-service transaction areas, including interior and exterior ATMs. Chase Bank’s other Springfield branch is at 3341 S. Glenstone Ave. in front of Glenstone Marketplace.

Goodstop
Ankeny, Iowa-based Casey’s General Stores Inc. (Nasdaq: CASY) opened its first Springfield-area Goodstop store on Aug. 16 at a recently shuttered Macadoodles in Republic. Goodstop, a smaller-footprint concept from Casey’s that has gas, snacks, drinks and tobacco products, opened at 1439 U.S. Highway 60 East in Republic. The Macadoodles store at the site closed Aug. 11, according to Casey’s officials. The Goodstop store employs 11 in the building that spans 10,742 square feet.

Red Racks
The former Southern Hills Shopping Center space at 2900 E. Sunshine St. that long housed the Missouri Job Center before its relocation last year is now home to a Red Racks thrift store. Red Racks opened July 31 in its new home after moving from its 2843 E. Sunshine St. store in the former Ruby’s Market, a concept from Price Cutter parent company Pyramid Foods. Red Racks Director of Business Operations Chandra Regan said the move increased the store’s square footage to 41,000 from 16,000. She declined to disclose relocation and renovation costs or lease terms. A spokesperson with Disabled American Veterans’ national office said the store is managed by Red Racks to the benefit of DAV Department of Missouri. Red Racks’ website also lists Springfield locations at 1711 N. Glenstone Ave. and 1707 W. Battlefield Road. Aside from selling retail products including clothing, furniture, home decor, household items, shoes and tools, Red Racks also accepts donations at its stores and offers curbside pickup of items.
