IKEA announces new store opening in 2026
IKEA has announced plans to open 10 new stores in various U.S. cities by 2026 as part of its expansion strategy.
Ollie’s Bargain Outlet continues to expand rapidly, opening six more stores in five states by the end of March, with the discount chain continuing to utilize former Big Lots stores following its bankruptcy last year.
The opening adds to the rapid growth spurred by the Big Lots bankruptcy, with Olly’s taking over a pipeline of shuttered retail spaces and steadily converting them into new bargain outlets across the country.
The six planned store openings by the end of March come on the heels of four stores opening earlier this month and five more in February, bringing Oly’s total to 15 new stores this year in 11 states.
From the Midwest to the South, Ollie’s upcoming stores are rapidly rolling out. Here is the complete list:
