MADISON, Wis. (June 2017) – The Madison office of Kraus-Anderson Construction Company (KA), one of the nation’s premier commercial general contractors and construction managers, has completed the construction of Cabela’s new store in Chesterfield, Mich. — the 27th Cabela’s store built by Kraus-Anderson.

The 88,327-square-foot store is located at 45959 Towne Center Blvd. in MaComb County’s Chesterfield Township 30 miles northeast of Detroit near Lake St. Clair.  The new store is scheduled to open this fall.

The building’s exterior will reflect Cabela’s popular store model with wood construction, stonework, and metal roofing.  A large glass storefront will allow customers to view much of the store’s interior as they approach the building.

The store’s interior will be built in Cabela’s new layout designed to surround customers in an outdoor-like experience, featuring a large mountain replica and wildlife display, archery and firearm tech room, indoor archery range and Bargain Cave.

Chesterfield Township is the fourth Cabela’s location in Michigan joining the Dundee, Saginaw and Grandville stores.
