Macy's 'Small-Format' Store In Cherry Hill Sets Opening Date
The brand — known for its massive department stores — has been going small in an effort to diversity in the new era of retail.
CHERRY HILL, NJ — Macy's is bringing its new era of smaller stores to Cherry Hill.
Recently, Macy's has been rolling out "small-format" stores — each of which is a fraction of the typical Macy's store size. The concept is designed to help the brand diversity and expand in the evolving retail landscape.
The new store, located in the Garden State Park shopping center, will celebrate its grand opening from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. May 25.

In 2020, Macy's debuted a small-format store in the Dallas area. Macy's ended 2023 with a dozen small-format locations, with plans to open up to 30 more by the end of next year. Macy's, Inc. has also opened several smaller Bloomingdale's locations called Bloomie's.
Macy's brought the small format to South Jersey last month, opening in Mount Laurel. Just like the Centerton Square location, Macy's Garden State Park will also replace Bed Bath & Beyond.
