SALT LAKE CITY, May 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Designery, an immersive, full-service kitchen, bath and closet design center featuring high-quality cabinets, countertops and flooring, announced today that it will open its first location in Utah with a grand opening ceremony from 2-4 p.m., Tuesday, May 6, at the showroom in the South Jordan Towne Center at 10429 S Redwood Road in South Jordan.

Owners Doug and Geri Walton will not only provide food from local restaurants at the event, they will also give away prizes and offer tours of the new The Designery South Jordan showroom, created by the Waltons and their partners at The Slade Group, Elegant Universal Stone, South Valley Building Company and MSI Tile.

"We have always wanted the opportunity to open a small business, work with family members and provide a business that services the community," Doug Walton said. "Salt Lake City is the perfect 'big, small town.' You can go to a local event and end up running into the governor, but it's also a growing and vibrant community. We can't wait to be a part of that growth."

While Doug Walton was born and raised in Toledo, Ohio, Geri Walton is from Salt Lake City. The couple lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for 25 years before making the move to Salt Lake City in 2021.

Doug Walton started his working life selling customized accounting software and worked as a computer engineer and a technical writer. He spent the last 20 years as an organization change leader in major companies like Cisco Systems and The Clorox Company. Geri Walton worked as a supervisor in the corporate publishing world. She is a freelance writer with four books and a blog with more than 1,000 articles under her belt.

The couple have been married for 28 years and have two grown children, Cori and Chase.
