The company’s backstage stores are generally 11,000 to 16,000 square feet in size and house products ranging from apparel to a wide range of toys, housewares, beauty products, designer handbags, activewear and more.
Focusing on its off-mall, small format expansion, Macy’s last year added two new free-standing Backstage locations in Dallas, TX and three Market by Macy’s locations in Dallas, TX and Atlanta, GA.
The retailer keeps changing its store fleet to cater to the changing preference of consumers and seeks to open additional off-mall locations throughout 2022. The off-price shops will provide Star Rewards to customers and allow them to use their Macy’s credit card at all locations.
