Retailer Opening Next Week In Former Doylestown Bon-Ton

DOYLESTOWN, PA — A pop-up department store taking over the former Doylestown Bon-Ton is on target for its grand opening next week, the business announced Wednesday.

Fox & Holly Bucks County - Him. Her. Home will be opening on Thursday, Nov. 1 for three months as a multi-generational holiday store, and then will reopen in the spring as a permanent store. It is owned by Karen Thompson, a Bucks County native and president and founder of LSL Brands. It will employ former employees of Bon Ton, which closed in August.

"Fox & Holly Bucks County is bringing back our hometown department store," Fox & Holly announced on Facebook this week, where it confirmed its Nov. 1 opening.

Some fun activities are planned at the store throughout the holiday season, including visits from Santa and Mrs. Claus, Fashion Shows, a Victorian Christmas weekend, a Shop with the Stars Weekend, Hometown Day on Nov. 23, and Black Friday on Nov. 24.

"We can't wait to open our doors to the community of Bucks County, PA," the announcement said.

The "multi-generational shopping experience" will feature familiar brands as well as new brands "presented in a fun and socially engaging atmosphere," according to information from the store.

Renovations on the permanent store are planned through the winter.
