Sportswear conglomerate Nike Inc announced the official opening of its Nike Factory Store at The Legends at Village West in Kansas City, KS.

Ed Stair, Nike Factory Store General Manager, said, "Nike is very proud to open our newest Factory Store at the Legends at Village West Outlet mall.

"We are very excited to have Nike joining us in Wyandotte County. The Boys & Girls Clubs have a strong relationship with Nike and share our vision of healthy, active children. We are honored to benefit from this grand opening and we look forward to many opportunities to partner together to benefit the youth and families in Wyandotte County," said Smith.

The more than 15,000 square foot retail outlet will employ 40 full-and part-time staff. The store is located at 1803 Village West Pkwy in Kansas City, KS.
