Ullared is a small town in the middle of nowhere that most people probably would never have heard of if it wasn't for the fact that it's the location of the gigantic department store Gekås, though the department store is usually just called the same as the town, "Ullared". In fact, when people say "Ullared" in Sweden, they pretty much always mean the department store, almost forgetting that it was originally the name of the town.
There's even a tv show following both the employees and customers of the store that's been running for several years which is (perhaps not surprisingly) simply named "Ullared".
We start just outside the store and then move past the restaurants and shops that's popped up around the area while also getting a look at a part of the parking area that keeps growing bigger and bigger almost every year. Then we continue past the motel & hotel built to house guests needing a place to spend the night (yes, people do come here to shop for multiple days and stay over night) before we get out of the "department store dedicated area" and see a bit of the town.
