Introduction
Wikipedia features a comprehensive and well-attributed overview of the Ross Dress For Less retail clothing chain: Ross Stores, Inc., operating under the brand name Ross Dress for Less, is an American chain of discount department stores headquartered in Dublin, California… Ross Department Store was first opened in San Bruno, California, in 1950 by Morris "Morrie" Ross. Morris would work 85 hours a week doing all of the buying and bookkeeping for his department store.
Per ScrapeHero.com’s most recently updated location count: There are 1,694 Ross Stores locations in the United States as of February 13, 2023. The state with the most number of Ross Stores locations in the U.S. is California, with 334 locations, which is about 20% of all Ross Stores locations in the U.S.
Now comes word that a new Ross Dress For Less location is the planned anchor replacement for a major Ohio shopping center.
Let us explore further.
Ross Dress For Less, 2023
According to a February 22nd report from DaytonDailyNews.com, entitled “UPDATE: New Anchor Named For Kettering’s Town & Country; Other Stores Expand,” Ross Dress for Less is on its way to replace the departed Stein Mart as shopping center anchor.
As excerpted from the report: A new anchor tenant is expected for Town & Country Shopping Center as one business is expanding while another is relocating to a larger space, the Kettering retail complex co-owner said. Documents obtained by the Dayton Daily News on Wednesday indicate a Ross Dress for Less — a national clothing and home decor retailer with two Dayton-area locations — is planned for the site formerly occupied by Stein Mart.
The report went on to state: The name of the business was not identified by Senior Asset Manager and Broker Kelly Casto. Records received by the city of Kettering indicate Ross Dress for Less is the subject of a “tenant improvement package” for the site.
No dates have yet been announced for the apparent new opening.
