(Harrison, Oh.) – New businesses are popping up in Harrison, while another is relocating.

The City of Harrison recently announced the additions of Shoe Sensation and Planet Fitness to their retail and fitness portfolio.

In fact, Shoe Sensation has already opened along Harrison Avenue in the shopping center adjacent to Kroger. The store offers quality and name brand footwear, in addition to fashion apparel, bags, socks, insoles and shoe care.

Consumers might grab a pair of shoes at the new Shoe Sensation to use at Planet Fitness, which will be opening in the same shopping plaza this spring.

Lastly, Big Lots will be moving from their location on New Haven Road to the former Kmart space on Harrison Avenue.

Renovations are expected to be completed sometime in the spring.
