The Law Co. has been named general contractor for the Cabela’s store that is slated for the Regency Lakes development in northeast Wichita.

A spokeswoman for Cabela’s confirmed the contract on Wednesday.

The Law Co. was one of six contractors, including four from Wichita, that were selected to bid the job by the Nebraska-based retailer of outdoor gear. The construction value of the project hasn’t been released.

The deal is a big win for The Law Co. in what’s been a difficult market for commercial contractors.

Cabela’s has said the 80,000-square-foot store is expected to go under construction in late June or early July. It would be complete in mid-January for an opening in spring 2012.

Law Co. President Rich Kerschen wasn’t immediately available for comment.

The company has done some other big retail lately. It also was general contractor on the Menards home improvement store on Maize Road in west Wichita.
