Nordstrom Rack Expands in New Jersey with New Location in Deptford
In an exciting development for fashion enthusiasts in New Jersey, Nordstrom, Inc., the Seattle-based fashion retailer, has announced plans to open a brand new Nordstrom Rack store in Deptford, NJ. The grand opening is slated for fall 2026, heralding a new chapter for both the retailer and the local community.
Gemma Lionello, President of Nordstrom Rack, expressed her enthusiasm for this expansion: "We look forward to being a part of the Deptford community and serving our customers with an amazing offering of great brands at great prices." This statement underscores the company's commitment to delivering both value and quality, hallmarks of the Nordstrom brand.
The new store will occupy an impressive 24,500 square feet and will be situated in the bustling Deptford Town Center, known for its diverse mix of retail options. This shopping center is already home to popular names such as Aldi, First Watch, and Tractor Supply, making it a vibrant destination for shoppers. According to Mitchol S. Pappan, Owner of MSP Developments, the high-visibility and high-traffic location will serve as an excellent fit for Nordstrom Rack's mission of providing top-quality fashion at reduced prices.
Notably, this store will enhance the company's footprint within the Philadelphia market, bringing new opportunities for local residents. With services like online order pickup from Nordstrom.com and NordstromRack.com, customers will enjoy convenience that makes shopping easier than ever. The return policy will also be streamlined, allowing for hassle-free exchanges and returns.
Nordstrom Rack, the off-price division of Nordstrom, focuses on delivering significant discounts on trendsetting apparel, accessories, beauty essentials, home decor, and footwear. Shoppers can expect to find items at prices up to 70% off compared to traditional retail, making it a go-to destination for budget-conscious shoppers who appreciate brand quality. This new outlet is strategically designed to draw in new customers, thereby expanding the Nordstrom customer base.
Currently, Nordstrom operates four full-line stores and nine Nordstrom Rack locations throughout New Jersey, collectively creating over 1,600 jobs in the state. This new store is expected to bolster both the local economy and the shopping experience in Deptford.
Nordstrom is also dedicated to giving back to the communities it serves. Over the past four years, the company has partnered with Big Brothers Big Sisters of the United States, contributing over $2 million to support youth mentorship programs. These funds are directly used to assist in recruiting, training, and engaging mentors, showcasing Nordstrom’s commitment to making a positive impact.
The rich history of Nordstrom began in 1901 as a humble shoe store, and the company has evolved to prioritize customer service above all else. Their current approach combines convenience with personalized shopping experiences, whether in-store or online. As Nordstrom continues to adapt in an ever-changing retail landscape, they remain focused on providing seamless shopping experiences at over 350 locations, including Nordstrom, Nordstrom Local, and Nordstrom Rack stores.
With the upcoming opening in Deptford, NJ, the anticipation continues to build for what Nordstrom Rack will bring to local shoppers. It is certainly an exciting time for fashion lovers in the area, as they can look forward to a new source of style and savings right in their backyard.
As we await the fall 2026 opening, it’s clear that Nordstrom Rack is not just expanding its store count; it’s also deepening its commitment to serving communities through quality merchandise and impactful initiatives. The new Deptford location is sure to become a favorite destination for many.
