Kmart #7424 was a Kmart discount department store located at 5221 Yellowstone Road in Cheyenne, Wyoming.[1][2]

The 72,897 square foot store opened at 10 AM on Thursday, June 28th, 1981, adding an eighth Wyoming location. It began with a complete automotive section and contained many of the departments already common inside of Kmart stores from the time.[3]

The store closed in mid-1991 (possibly closing on the 28th), being replaced by Kmart 3891 on Dell Range Blvd (along with Kmart 4413 on E Pershing Blvd). Sutherlands 4307 opened in 1994 in the former Kmart.[4][5]

Today, Wyoming Department of Workforce Services occupies the building.[6]
