Ross Stores, Inc. opened 16 Ross Dress for Less (“Ross”) and three DD’s Discounts stores in 14 states this month as part of the retailer’s plans to add approximately 90 new stores, comprised of about 80 Ross and 10 DD’s Discounts, during fiscal 2025.
“This Spring, we continued to expand the store base of both Ross and DD’s. Specifically for Ross, we expanded our presence in the newer markets of Connecticut, Minnesota, New Jersey, and New York, while dd’s growth primarily focused on existing markets of California, Georgia and Texas,” said Richard Lietz, EVP of Property Development at Ross Stores, Inc. “We now operate a total of 2,205 Ross Dress for Less and DD’s Discounts locations across 44 states, the District of Columbia and Guam.”
The company believes Ross can grow to 2,900 locations, and DD’s Discounts can become a chain of 700 stores, given consumers’ ongoing focus on value and convenience.
