Cellular Sales, the nation’s largest Verizon premium wireless retailer, is announcing it is opening a new store in Augusta Mall on May 21.

The newest Cellular Sales location will open this Thursday, and it bring eight new jobs to Augusta. To commemorate the grand opening of the store, Cellular Sales plans to hold a red carpet event in June. 

“We couldn’t ask for a better location for our newest store in Augusta,” Jason Myers, regional director at Cellular Sales, said. “Augusta Mall is a shopping hub for this area, and it provides a good place to set down our roots in this great city.”

Founded in Knoxville, Tenn., more than 20 years ago, Cellular Sales has been named by Inc. Magazine as one of the nation’s fastest-growing privately owned companies for six of the past seven years. The company employs more than 4,500 people at its 545 stores across 28 states. Cellular Sales operates 30 stores in Georgia, and it has set up storefronts in nearby Grovetown, Thomson and Waynesboro.

“Augusta is the second-largest metro area in Georgia, and it just makes sense for us to be here,” Myers said. “This store adds to our growing list of locations in Richmond County and the surrounding areas.”
