Sissy’s Log Cabin To Open Seventh Store
The Arkansas-based jeweler’s first store in the state’s northwest region is set to open next year.
The jeweler, which serves the mid-south through its other six locations across Arkansas and Tennessee, said it expects to open the new store, located at 4410 Phoenix Avenue, in April 2025.
Florida-based architect Jesse Balaity designed the 5,200-square-foot space.
The jeweler said its new store design will blend its signature shopping experience with modern aesthetics, featuring state-of-the-art displays and elements of an immersive retail experience such as styling, try-ons, custom design, and personalization options.
“Fort Smith has a rich history in the state of Arkansas, and it is truly a privilege to bring our family-owned, Arkansas-based business to this community,” said William Jones, president of Sissy’s Log Cabin.
“As we expand into the northwest part of our state, we look forward to serving a new region of customers and being a part of your special moments for a lifetime.”
Bill Jones, CEO of Sissy’s Log Cabin, added, “Northwest Arkansas is truly a place of growth and opportunity, and our family is genuinely excited to bring our passion for fine jewelry to the Fort Smith community.”
“We’re ready to get to know our new neighbors, hear their stories, and become their go-to jeweler for life. Our promise is simple, but forever: Every time you walk into Sissy’s Log Cabin, you’ll find exceptional service, an expansive selection, an extraordinary experience, and quality pieces.”
The family-owned and -operated company, founded in 1970, has two locations in Little Rock, Arkansas; a store in Jonesboro; a store in Conway; and one location in Memphis, Tennessee.
