The department store chain has converted one of its locations in Greeneville Tennessee into a new Belk Outlet.
The new outlet location sells clearance items from its larger retail locations and as a result of the new layout, the store has been able to triple its product assortment. The outlet location doses not sell fine jewellery or beauty products and all sales are final in store.
When asked if the chain would be expanding the concept, a spokesperson for the company said: “Right now we’re focused on this Belk Outlet and seeing how our customers respond to it. We’re confident that our customers are going to like it because of the fantastic prices and the expanded product assortment this location will now be able to accommodate.”
Last Autumn, Belk named Don Hendricks as its Chief Executive Officer. Hendricks had acted as the company’s interim CEO for close to five months and had served as the Chief Operating Officer prior to this from 2016.
