In a thrilling development for outdoor enthusiasts, REI Co-op is set to open 10 new stores in 2024, expanding its footprint and bringing top-notch outdoor gear and expertise to diverse communities.
The upcoming spring will witness the arrival of REI in Beavercreek, Ohio, and Beaverton, Oregon, with additional summer openings in Glendale, Arizona, Ithaca, New York, and Rancho Mirage, California. Anticipating the fall season, Albany, New York, and Tulsa, Oklahoma are among the new locations.
While details of three more 2024 store openings remain undisclosed, REI has already set sights on 2025, with Durango, Colorado, slated for a spring launch and St. George, Utah, gearing up for a fall debut.
Each store promises an extensive selection of high-quality apparel and gear for a variety of outdoor activities such as camping, cycling, running, fitness, hiking, and climbing.
For cycling enthusiasts, REI introduces a full-service bike shop at each location, staffed with skilled technicians offering tuning, repairs, and performance enhancements for all types of bikes. The St. George, Utah store will also feature a dedicated ski and snowboard shop for winter adventure seekers.
Mary-Farrell Tarbox, REI Vice President of Stores, expresses excitement about the expansion, noting the abundance of natural places and proximity to iconic national parks in each community.
In line with REI’s commitment to community support, each store will establish nonprofit partnerships, contributing to local efforts to encourage more people to embrace the outdoors. Get ready for unparalleled outdoor experiences with REI Co-op’s 2024 expansion!
