Customers are visiting the Franz Bakery Outlet on Kent’s West Hill for the final days as the business will close Friday, Feb. 1.<\/p>\n

The outlet, 23009 Military Road S.,<\/a> is closing after Poulsbo RV recently bought the property that Portland-based Franz leases. The RV dealership, next door to the outlet, hopes to remain in the area with the additional property when the state Department of Transportation constructs a tunnel under Interstate 5 to connect Veterans Drive with State Route 509.<\/p>\n

The highway project could start in 2020 with a projected completion date of 2025 or 2026, according to state DOT officials.<\/p>\n

After the Kent location closes, Franz customers can visit the Tukwila outlet, 17500 W. Valley Highway, which is open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday.<\/p>\n

A Franz spokeswoman confirmed the outlet closure Jan. 10 in a Kent Reporter article.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
