Nordstrom Rack to open new location in Houston, Texas

Seattle-based fashion retailer Nordstrom has announced plans to open a new Nordstrom rack in Houston, Texas in fall 2024.

The 34,000-square-foot store will be located in Meyerland Plaza, which is among the top five most visited open-air centres in Texas. Meyerland Plaza has more than 50 retail and restaurant offerings, including Target, Dick's Sporting Goods, JCPenney, Ross, Marshalls and Old Navy. Meyerland Plaza is owned and managed by Fidelis and is ideally located on the hard corner of Loop 610 and Beechnut Street, the company said in a press release.

"We look forward to being a part of the Houston community and serving our customers with an amazing offering of great brands at great prices," said Gemma Lionello, president of Nordstrom Rack Stores. "We're excited to grow our footprint in the region and introduce new customers to the Nordstrom experience."

"We are very excited that Nordstrom Rack will soon be joining Meyerland Plaza, the most visited open-air retail centre in Houston. Our customers enjoy a wide variety of shopping, and the sophisticated offerings of Nordstrom Rack will provide an additional facet to their experience," said Lynn Davis, co-president and chief leasing & development officer.

Nordstrom rack is the off-price retail division of Nordstrom and plays a critical role in the company's Closer to You strategy, which focuses on delivering customers a more convenient and interconnected experience across its stores and digital platforms.

With the addition of this new location, Nordstrom expands its physical footprint and economic impact in Texas. The company operates eight Nordstrom stores and 23 Nordstrom Rack stores in Texas, generating more than 4,000 jobs statewide.
