## Resource

Costco is gearing up for a massive new store in Meridian, set to be the anchor of the Apex Zenith development — a sprawling 200K+ sq ft hub with fuel pumps and home delivery for big-ticket items. With permits filed, this fourth Treasure Valley location (joining Nampa, North Meridian, and Boise) signals booming demand and rapid growth in the area, as WinCo and other retailers also eye nearby spots. Expect 16 fuel pumps and fewer bike racks — a move that raises eyebrows given Costco’s famously packed parking lots. This isn’t just another warehouse; it’s a full-service retail and logistics hub poised to bring jobs and savings to the region.
