AutoZone Brings Game-Changing 20,000 SF Regional Hub to Jonesboro’s Auto Row!

[Jonesboro, Ark. Nov. 6, 2024] — Haag Brown is thrilled to announce that AutoZone is bringing a massive 20,000 SF

regional hub to the entrance of Jonesboro's Auto Row on S. Stadium Boulevard! This high-impact location marks

AutoZone’s third storefront in Jonesboro and the first-ever regional hub in the area.

Founded in 1979 in Forrest City, Arkansas as a single Auto Shack store, AutoZone has grown into the nation's

leading retailer and distributor of automotive replacement parts and accessories.

The new hub will be strategically located on 2.26 acres at the corner of S. Stadium Blvd and Rook Rd, between

Bayird Preowned Supercenter and Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram Dealership, across from Kum & Go. The location’s

proximity and visibility to Interstate 555 and Auto Row were the main selling points to the retailer as AutoZone

seeks to maximize accessibility and availability to Jonesboro’s booming auto industry.

It was a pleasure getting to help AutoZone with their expansion needs here in Jonesboro. Location was key for their new regional hub and this site, literally at the entrance of Auto Row on S. Stadium Blvd., checked all the boxes. This location will further extend their reach and commitment to our community. — Zac Qualls, Executive Broker, Haag Brown Commercial

The store will feature AutoZone's expansive 20,000 SF format, functioning as a regional service hub for locations across Northeast Arkansas. This approach will provide a wider selection of products, ensuring customers can quickly access the parts and accessories they need.

Zac Qualls has gone above and beyond by securing off-market land for AutoZone's upcoming flagship store in the Jonesboro metro area. This strategic move is a testament to Zac's commitment to delivering exceptional opportunities for his clients and ensuring the success of their expansion plans. Thanks to Zac's expertise and dedication, AutoZone is set to establish a prominent presence in Jonesboro with our flagship store, catering to the growing needs of the local community. — AutoZone, Real Estate Development Manager

Haag Brown’s Nathan Eller represented the landlord, Bayird Properties, LLC., and Haag Brown’s Zac Qualls

represented the tenant in the transaction.

It’s inspiring to witness investment opportunities come full circle. A few years ago, I had the privilege of representing Keith Bayird in his purchase of this property, and it’s been a pleasure to assist him once again as he secures a once-in-a-lifetime investment opportunity with such a significant national brand. I’m grateful for the chance to help Keith on this monumental deal with AutoZone that will benefit him and his family for decades to come. — Nathan Eller, Executive Broker, Haag Brown Commercial

With over 30 years of experience in buying and selling real estate and having participated in more than 50 deals, I can confidently say this one holds special significance. I could not have secured a national brand like AutoZone as a tenant without Nathan Eller and the HB team. Their network, expertise, and clear communication throughout the process were invaluable in helping me put together this rare investment opportunity. — Keith Bayird, Landlord, Bayird Properties, LLC

Haag Brown is excited to see the impact this retailer will make on the area as it will be the only retailer of its kind

on S. Stadium Blvd. As new dealerships are continually being added and updated, AutoZone’s arrival fills the gap for

an aftermarket auto retailer in the heart of Jonesboro’s auto row.
