REI Co-op is expanding its footprint in 2025 with new stores and relocations to larger stores of existing ones.
The specialty outdoor retailer announced its 2025 spring and summer new store line-up along with two locations planned for 2026. Additional stores for 2026 will be announced as leases are finalised.
“Cities that will have new stores represent communities that serve as a gateway to some of the country’s most incredible natural places and where our members currently live or destinations where they love to play outside,” said Mary-Farrell Tarbox, VP of Stores, REI, which will have more than 190 stores in the US by the end of 2024.
REI noted that it will also make capital investments in its current fleet in 2025 to improve the employee workplace and customer shopping experience. By the end of 2024, REI will have opened 10 new stores and expanded its San Diego location.
