The new outposts are part of the 30-plus stores that Target plans to open this year – and the more than 300 new stores the company is on track to build by 2035.
Target’s March openings include a 40,000sq ft store in Jersey City, New Jersey. The retailer’s small-format concept is designed to cater to commuters, with locations near public transportation, early opening hours, amenities and easy fulfilment services. The six other Target stores opening in March feature the company’s larger format and average 148,000sq ft.
“Our continued commitment to opening new stores is really about showing up for our guests and our communities – and it starts with our incredible store team members,” said Chief Stores Officer Adrienne Costanzo, who started her Target career 20 years ago at the company’s store in Evansville, Indiana. “These new stores give our teams the tools and environments to bring our merchandising strengths to life, create easier and more inspiring shopping experiences and use technology to move smarter and faster every day.”
