Ross Stores, California, US-based chain of discount department stores is on an expansion spree as it has recently opened 22 Ross Dress for Less (Ross) and eight dd's Discounts stores across 11 states in June and July. The new locations are part of the company's plans to add approximately 60 new stores – 40 Ross and 20 dd's Discounts – in fiscal 2021.

Together, Ross and dd's Discounts currently operate a total of 1,896 locations in 40 states, the district of Columbia and Guam.

"These recent openings reflect our ongoing commitment to expanding our two chains," Gregg McGillis, group executive vice president, property development, said in a statement. "This summer, we expanded our presence in our largest markets of California, Florida, and Texas, and also added locations in newer states, including Illinois for dd's as well as Ohio and West Virginia for Ross.

“Looking ahead, we remain confident in our ability to grow to at least 2,400 Ross Dress for Less and 600 dd's DISCOUNTS locations over time,” McGillis added.

Ross offers first-quality, in-season, name brand and designer apparel, accessories, footwear and home fashions for the entire family. The company also operates 285 dd's Discounts in 21 states that feature a more moderately-priced assortment.
