Beavercreek, OH - March 20, 2026 - A large crowd gathered Thursday morning as Dillard's officially opened its doors at The Mall at Fairfield Commons, marking the arrival of the retailer's first location in the Dayton region. Local officials, community leaders and representatives from mall ownership joined Dillard's executives for a ribbon-cutting ceremony welcoming the new store to the Beavercreek shopping destination. The 160,000-square-foot department store occupies the former Macy's location and introduces a new anchor tenant at the mall. "Welcoming Dillard's to The Mall at Fairfield Commons represents an important step in our vision for the future of this property," said Carmen Spinoso, founder and CEO of Spinoso Real Estate Group. "Dillard's is a strong national retailer with a loyal following, and we are excited to welcome them to the Dayton area and to continue building a retail destination that serves the community and attracts shoppers from across the region." The new store offers a wide assortment of merchandise including apparel for women, men, juniors and children, along with beauty products, handbags, accessories, jewelry and home goods. National and exclusive brands are featured throughout the store, along with in-store services such as beauty consultations, tailoring, gift wrapping and registry services. Opening day festivities included live entertainment, giveaways and brand demonstrations. The first shoppers lined up early for the opportunity to receive swag bags containing mystery gift cards and participate in special promotions throughout the store. As part of the grand opening celebration, 10 percent of the day's net sales will benefit Michael's House, a Dayton-area nonprofit that provides advocacy, prevention and support services for children impacted by abuse and neglect. The opening also reflects the continued evolution of The Mall at Fairfield Commons as it expands its mix of retail, dining and experiential offerings designed to attract visitors and create a gathering place for the community.
