According to Google Trends, the search term “costco” is rapidly rising in the United States, particularly in the state of Colorado. This increase in search interest could be due to a number of factors, including:
- The opening of new Costco stores in Colorado, including a new location in Thornton that opened in November 2022.
- The popularity of Costco’s low prices and bulk buying options, which can be appealing to consumers in a time of rising inflation.
- The chain’s strong reputation for customer service, which has been recognized by organizations such as J.D. Power and Associates.
