Ross Open New Stores as Other Stores Close
Store closures are standard practice among traditional retailers who often evaluate the profitability of each location. In this round of closures, however, more retailers are taking the digital experience into consideration as well as the location and appropriate size of their stores. While giant retailers like Bed Bath & Beyond are kicking off the new year with store closures, Ross will continue to open new stores nationwide as they continue to hit the trends since the pandemic era. You can see the list of stores closing this 2023 here!
Ross Markdowns
