Lululemon store may be squeezing into Kamloops

KAMLOOPS – Yoga lovers and expert loungers rejoice because a Lululemon Athletica store could be coming to Kamloops soon.

Lululemon is looking for a store manager for a Kamloops location, according to a job posting on the company's website. Candidates with a penchant for stretchy pants will probably have a leg up.

There are several potential spaces that would provide a positive aura for the store.

Aberdeen Mall has a large vacant space that's sat empty since the departure of East Side Mario's. Sahali Mall has vacancies and is welcoming a trampoline park and Planet Fitness soon. The manager of the Sahali Mall says they haven't heard anything about Lululemon moving in.

There's always the option to create a stand alone store as well.

The store's arrival isn't set in stone. Calls and emails to the popular fitness apparel company were not returned. Management at Aberdeen Mall did not return calls either.

With the company keeping mum on the subject, not much is certain at this point.
