Bargain hunters in theGolden State are about to get a few more aislesto dig through.
Burlington is rolling out 26 stores nationwide this month, withCalifornia landing multiple locationsas the off-price giant doubles down on brick-and-mortar.
The May openings spawn 20 states — including California, Texas, Ohio and South Carolina — and are part of Burlington’s plan to open more than 110 stores in 2026 alone.
For California shoppers, it means more chances to score cut-rate brands — without ever clicking “add to cart.”
“Delivering incredible value on brand-name and on-trend merchandise is at the heart of what we do,” CEO Michael O’Sullivantold USA Today, promising new stores packed with deals and fresh inventory.
The company is also leaning into a revamped store design, featuring wider aisles, clearer layouts and bolder signage aimed at making the in-store “treasure hunt” a little less chaotic — but no less rewarding.
Unlike many competitors, Burlington doesn’t sell online, instead betting big that shoppers prefer the thrill of finding a bargain in-person — a strategy that appears to be paying off.
The retailersaid they have posted steady growth, with sales climbing from $9.7 billion in 2023 to $11.5 billion in 2025, even asother chains shutter stores across the country.
Burlington is aiming to peon 500 net new stores by 2028, while also investing in a massive new distribution center in Arizona — a 2 million-square-foot facility expected to come online in 2028 and streamline operations with advanced automation.
For now, though, the focus is squarely on expansion — and California’s firmly in the mix.
