The Popcorn Shoppe owner Matt George described the last three years in Peoria as “an absolute dream come true.”
Originally located in Lacon, the business moved to the Metro Centre in 2022 months after George became an owner. Now, The Popcorn Shoppe is preparing to relocate to Downtown Peoria.
“In three short years now I’m in Downtown Peoria, and it’s such a proud moment for me to see Popcorn Shoppe grow like this and the community support what I’m doing,” George said. “I love it.”
George said the current storefront will close after a final day on Sept. 20. The new storefront – situated at 317 Main Street in Downtown Peoria – is expected to open a couple weeks later.
Ahead of the transition, though, George said the store will celebrate its three-year anniversary with a week’s worth of deals. Customers will find celebratory specials from Sept. 2 through Sept. 8.
Here is what customers can expect to find:
A flier about the anniversary encouraged the community to “Come celebrate with us, stock up on your favorite flavors, and let’s make this anniversary the tastiest one yet!”
