Tractor Supply Company, headquartered outside of Nashville in Brentwood, Tennessee, is planning a second retail location in Floyd County. It will be built on the Alabama Highway in Coosa. The first Tractor Supply was built on U.S. Highway 411 in East Rome. Currently, the store operates locations in Fort Oglethorpe, Calhoun, LaFayette and Summerville as well.
The company was originally founded in 1938 as a mail-in catalog business that sold tractor parts to farmers. Tractor Supply Company first began as a mail-order catalog business in 1938, primarily selling tractor parts to farmers. However, the company has since evolved to become a leading retailer of a diverse array of products tailored to the “rural lifestyle.” While tractor parts now make up a smaller portion of overall sales, the company has expanded its offerings to include a significant focus on livestock feed and pet supplies, which account for nearly half of the chain’s revenue. Beyond these core categories, Tractor Supply’s modern retail stores also feature an array of tools, chainsaws, and even garden centers to cater to the wide-ranging needs of its customer base.
The new store in Coosa will feature all of the offerings found at other locations including feed, tools and will also include a pet wash. The Rome News Tribune reported on Sunday that the lots on the Alabama Highway in Coosa where the new store is being built, sold for $550,000.
