Introduction
Wikipedia features a comprehensive and well-attributed overview of the Ollie’s Bargain Outlet chain: Ollie's Bargain Outlet is an American chain of discount closeout retailers. It was founded in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania in 1982 by Morton Bernstein and Mark L. Butler with backing from Harry Coverman and Oliver E. "Ollie" Rosenberg; the latter of whom is the namesake of the company... Its selection of merchandise comprises a variety of discounted household goods, apparel, pet supplies, kitchen pantry staples, and seasonal products (holiday, gardening, patio, pool and beach supplies); a majority of these items are unsold or overstocked merchandise that is purchased in bulk from other retailers and sold at discounted prices.
According to ScrapeHero.com: There are 471 Ollie's Bargain Outlet locations in the United States as of January 25, 2023. The state with the most number of Ollie's Bargain Outlet locations in the U.S. is Pennsylvania, with 49 locations, which is about 10% of all Ollie's Bargain Outlet locations in the U.S.
The location count is significant as it represents an increase even from seven months ago, when the total U.S. count, per the company and also as noted on the entity’s Wikipedia page linked above, was 449.
Now comes word that Ollie’s is adding yet another location.
