BRING MICROCENTER TO IOWA

Theemuffin

Bring the location to the des moine area or Ankeny there is plenty of space and also plenty for a market. In my opinion I get why you put it in bigger city’s but Ankeny is getting to the point we’re it’s starting to be the heart of Iowa. There needs to be a microcenter and I hope this actually gets sent to your team. Because that last one was last year and there was no mention of a location being built in Iowa with your blogs you guys do. So please take Iowa into consideration and please please please make it happen all of the techs and computer geeks would love it including myself. Thank you for reading dear a happy microcenter customer.

Hi! We do see quite a few requests for a location in Iowa, so it's definitely on our radar. We'll be sure to share this with our real estate team to hopefully nudge them in that direction!

I just tried to post a similar discussion but waiting on approval. Iowa needs a Micro Center. There is nothing currently in the area that caters to the market that Micro Center does. Literally every category of product Micro Center provides currently has to be purchased online for those of us in Iowa. The Des Moines/Ames and Cedar Rapids/Iowa City regions are technology hubs in the mid west that no one is paying attention to.

Yes! I'm always checking for an Iowa location!

PaulL quite a few of my friends are not on this forum but are always asking me where to go that isnt a bestbuy for PC parts etc. PLEASE bring a microcenter to the state of Iowa, there are quite a few spots in the general des moines area and surrounding suburbs that would be perfect for a large store.

@alphacmptr We have informed our real estate team of this! Thank you again for your continued interest in Micro Center! 😀

@PaulL glad to hear!!! I actually just visited the location in St. Louis Park, Minnesota today. It reinvigorated my hope that one of your locations will to come to Iowa soon. That brought me back to the forum where I came across your reply post. Any updates you can provide us in the community on this would be greatly appreciated.

@OutwardTomcat Glad to hear that you were able to visit one of our stores! We are always looking to expand :) Any updates we have should be posted on our community page here or our main page https://www.microcenter.com/ . I will try and keep this chain in mind as well!

Yes, come to Des Moines area! I used to live near Irvine, CA  and Micro Center was the best! Ankeny or West Des Moines would be high traffic areas in the Des Moines area. With Ankeny you would get people coming from all over Des Moines and down from Ames where Iowa State is, a huge tech university only 30 min away.
