Nordstrom will bring its off-price department store Nordstrom Rack to Athens. The store is slated to take over a 22,000-square-foot space at Athens Marketplace in summer 2027, joining existing retailers including Office Depot and Game Stop.
“We look forward to being a part of the Athens community and serving our customers with an amazing offering of great brands at great prices,” Gemma Lionello, president of Nordstrom Rack, said in a release. “We’re excited to grow our footprint in the Atlanta market and introduce new customers to the Nordstrom experience.”
Nordstrom Rack offers customers up to 70% off on-trend apparel, accessories, beauty products, home decor and shoes from many of the top brands sold at Nordstrom stores. The forthcoming location will offer online order pick up from both Nordstrom.com and NordstromRack.com.
The Athens location will join two existing Nordstrom stores and seven Nordstrom Rack stores located in Georgia.
