'Co-branded' Bed Bath & Beyond stores opening in two in California cities. by: Jashayla Pettigrew, Addy Bink Posted: Jun 21, 2026 / 12:21 PM PDT Updated: Jun 21, 2026 / 12:21 PM PDT PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) - Nearly a dozen U.S. cities are welcoming the initial wave of combined stores featuring two once-prominent brands that previously filed for bankruptcy. Earlier this year, Bed Bath & Beyond announced it was acquiring The Container Store. Both companies filed for bankruptcy in 2023. The former has been rebounding after Overstock.com bought the Bed Bath & Beyond brand name and relaunched it as an online store and app. Last year, it was announced that physical Bed Bath & Beyond stores would be opening under the Brand House Collective Inc. umbrella. The company made a stir when Executive Chairman and CEO Marcus Lemonis, also the co-founder and now-retired CEO of Camping World, said Bed Bath & Beyond stores wouldn't open in California. Multiple California cities are, however, among the newest homes for Bed Bath & Beyond + The Container Store locations. 22 cities among 'first phase' of rollout. The "co-branded" stores are "welcoming customers... immediately," Beyond said in a Thursday press release. These Bed Bath & Beyond + The Container Store locations are meant to make "a more connected home shopping experience." "Our customers don't think about their homes in categories," Lemonis said in a statement. "For decades, customers have had to visit multiple retailers, websites and service providers to complete a single home project. One company for bedding, another for storage, another for closets, another for installation. That model no longer works." The first combo location opened in Fort Worth, Texas, in May. Twenty-two more stores are among the "first phase" of what is expected to be a nationwide rollout. These locations were said to be welcoming customers "immediately": * South Coast (Costa Mesa), California * Century City (Los Angeles), California * Park Meadows (Lone Tree), Colorado * Miami, Florida * Buckhead (Atlanta), Georgia * Chicago, Illinois * Northbrook, Illinois * Oak Brook, Illinois * Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts * Natick, Massachusetts * Minneapolis, Minnesota * Paramus, New Jersey * 6th Avenue (New York City), New York * Westbury, New York * Charlotte, North Carolina * Columbus, Ohio * Portland (Tigard), Oregon * Nashville, Tennessee * Austin, Texas * Houston, Texas * Salt Lake City, Utah * Bellevue, Washington The "co-branded" retailer is expected to continue opening converted stores throughout the upcoming weeks, according to company leaders. Each store is expected to match the community that it's in, reflecting "how people actually live in each market," Lemonis said. Where additional co-branded stores could open soon. In late April, The Container Store announced an "overhaul" of 98 of its locations in order to make way for the new combined retail concept. Now that 23 stores have been rebranded, the remaining set to be reopened are in: * Arkansas: Little Rock * Arizona: Glendale, Phoenix (20th Street and N. Scottsdale Road), Tucson * California: Corte Madera, Palo Alto, Sacramento, San Diego, El Segundo, San Francisco, San Jose, San Mateo, Walnut Creek, Woodland Hills * Colorado: Denver and Broomfield * Delaware: Newark * Florida: Boca Raton, Hallandale Beach, Miami, Orlando, Palm Beach Gardens, Pembroke Pines, Tampa * Georgia: Alpharetta and Atlanta * Illinois: Schaumburg * Indiana: Indianapolis * Iowa: West Des Moines * Kansas: Overland Park * Maryland: Annapolis, Gaithersburg, Rockville * Massachusetts: Peabody * Michigan: Novi and Troy * Missouri: St. Louis * Nebraska: Omaha * New Hampshire: Salem * New Jersey: Bound Brook, Cherry Hill, Livingston, Princeton * New Mexico: Albuquerque * Nevada: Las Vegas * New York: Huntington Station, White Plains, Yonkers * North Carolina: Raleigh * Ohio: Cincinnati and Beachwood * Oklahoma: Oklahoma City * Pennsylvania: King of Prussia and Pittsburgh * Rhode Island: Cranston * Tennessee: Germantown * Texas: Arlington, Friendswood, Fairview, Dallas (West Northwest Highway and Dallas Parkway), Houston, San Antonio, Southlake, Plano, The Woodlands * Virginia: Ashburn, Arlington, Reston, Richmond, Springfield, Vienna * Washington: Tukwila * Wisconsin: Wauwatosa It's unclear when exactly the reformatted stores will open, but Beyond said in a press release that the transitions would take place "over the following months." Bed Bath & Beyond's rebound continues. In addition to The Container Store, Bed Bath & Beyond has also acquired or announced plans to acquire Fathom, a real estate services platform; Installed Right and SFV Services; and the assets of F9 Brands, Inc., including Cabinets To Go and Lumber Liquidators. Additionally, Bed Bath & Beyond unveiled a strategic partnership with financial services company Bilt, as part of its "Everything Home" strategy. In 2025, Beyond took an ownership stake in Kirkland's Inc., a home decor chain with around 300 stores nationwide. Kirkland's then rebranded as The Brand House Collective, and existing stores were slated to be converted to Bed Bath & Beyond stores.

Fathom Holdings, a technology-driven real estate services platform, has agreed to be acquired by Bed Bath & Beyond in an all-stock transaction valuing Fathom at approximately $53.38 million. The deal offers 0.2236 shares of Bed Bath & Beyond for each Fathom share. The acquisition adds Fathom's brokerage, mortgage, title and insurance capabilities to Bed Bath & Beyond's "Everything Home" strategy, which aims to create an end-to-end homeownership platform. The combination is expected to provide Fathom with access to millions of Bed Bath & Beyond customers and enhanced resources for technology investment. Adam Rothstein has been appointed Fathom's interim CEO, whilst Daniel Weinmann becomes CFO. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2026, subject to shareholder approval and regulatory clearance.
