Rural King #1 is a Rural King farm supply store located at Cross County Mall, 700 Broadway Avenue East in Mattoon, Illinois.[1] The chain's first store, its original location opened in 1960. On August 2, 1999, the store moved into the company's new headquarters and distribution center complex at 4216 Dewitt Avenue.[2]
After Rural King purchased Cross County Mall in 2017, the company considered moving its headquarters into the mall, but ultimately decided to move the Mattoon store into the mall's former Sears space and expand the headquarters at its existing location.[3] The store opened in its new location in the mall on January 16, 2019.[4]
