BJ’s Wholesale Club plans to open second small format store and 25-30 new warehouses over the next two years
/BJ's Wholesale Club plans to add 25 to 30 new warehouse stores in the next two years. According to Bob Eddy, chairman and CEO of BJ’s Wholesale Club, the Dallas-Ft. Worth market offers significant expansion opportunities for BJ's starting in 2026. In 2025, store openings include Casselberry and Delray Beach, Florida, Warner Robins, Georgia, Whippany, New Jersey, Staten Island, New York and Sevierville, Tennessee.
The 2025 openings include Brooksville, Florida and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina (both opened in February), and Southern Pines, North Carolina, which opened on March 7.
BJ's introduced a new concept branded as BJ's Market stores, which are about half the size of a full-sized BJ's Wholesale Club, focusing on a selection of groceries, household essentials and other fast moving merchandise. The new concept still requires a BJ's membership to shop. The first location is 43,000 square feet, which opened in Warwick, Rhode Island in 2022 and the second one will be the Delray Beach store that will open in 2025.
Headquartered in Marlborough, Massachusetts, the company operates 252 clubs and 188 BJ's Gas locations in 21 states.
