{"product_id":"shopko-stores-metal-bottle-opener","title":"Shopko Stores Metal Bottle Opener","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCelebrate the story of Shopko with a bottle opener inspired by a familiar Upper Midwest retail name. The first Shopko store opened in Green Bay in 1962, beginning a regional journey that included expansion across Wisconsin and beyond, a connection with Pamida, and the later Shopko Hometown stores. Broad retail operations ended in 2019, making the brand a distinct chapter in department-store history. It is a conversation-starting keepsake for former customers and collectors of regional retail names.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShopko began in 1962, when pharmacist James Ruben and investors opened the first ShopKo department store at 216 S. Military Avenue in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The chain expanded across Wisconsin and into Michigan, then merged with SuperValu in 1971. It became publicly traded in 1991. Shopko acquired regional discount retailer Pamida in 1999 and operated it as a separate division until 2007, when Pamida was reestablished as an independent company. Shopko was acquired by an affiliate of Sun Capital Partners in 2005 and changed its name from ShopKo Stores, Inc. to Shopko Stores, Inc. in 2007. Pamida and Shopko merged again in 2012, and many former Pamida stores became Shopko Hometown locations. The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on January 16, 2019, and announced that all remaining stores would close that March. Retail operations ended on June 23, 2019. Shopko Optical locations continued operating; the optical business was later acquired by Fielmann AG.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis slim, all-metal bottle opener feels like the trusted tool you reach for when friends gather and stories start. Forged from heavy-duty stainless steel, it slides into a pocket or bartending apron without bulk, then delivers confident leverage when a cold drink needs freeing. The flat surface accepts crisp laser engraving, so names, dates, or logos stay sharp through years of use. Use it behind the home bar, at backyard tailgates, or hand one to each member of your wedding party — it’s built to take commercial-level wear while still looking clean and refined. Simple, sturdy, and ready for the next toast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- 100% heavy-duty stainless steel resists rust and bending\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Flat surface optimized for permanent precision laser engraving\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Ergonomic all-metal grip provides strong leverage\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Slim, ultra-flat profile fits pockets and bar drawers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Commercial-grade durability for frequent use\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 500; font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eOne size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eWidth, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e5.50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eHeight, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e1.50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEU representative\u003c\/strong\u003e: HONSON VENTURES LIMITED, gpsr@honsonventures.com, 3, Gnaftis House flat 102, Limassol, Mesa Geitonia, 4003, CY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct information\u003c\/strong\u003e: Generic brand, two year warranty in the EU and Northern Ireland\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Printify","offers":[{"title":"One size \/ Silver","offer_id":54722625732892,"sku":"32523494473092215658","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/2517\/5580\/files\/6436316488388495250_2048.jpg?v=1792241452","url":"https:\/\/ghostcorpapparel.com\/products\/shopko-stores-metal-bottle-opener","provider":"Ghost Corp Apparel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
