The lease there ends in October, said Janice Bunch, president and chief operating officer at Goodwill San Antonio, so leaders there started in 2019 hunting for land on which to build. The new Live Oak store will be similar in size to the one on Blanco Road, north of Loop 1604, that opened two years ago.
The newest Goodwill San Antonio store will be located just across Loop 1604 from IKEA and the RBFCU Headquarters along Interstate 35.In addition to Goodwill and the new restaurant, a mixed-use development with retail and medical offices is also in the works. The COVID-19 pandemic contributed to a massive amount of donated goods across the entire 155-member Goodwill national network as people stayed home and cleaned out their closets, Bunch said.
Another 700 people employed by Goodwill work at local military installations fulfilling the nonprofit’s federal contracts for administrative and grounds maintenance work.
