MERCEDES, Texas – Burlington Stores, Inc., one of the fastest growing national off-price retailers, is opening a new store in Mercedes. With fresh merchandise arriving each week, at up to 60% off other retailers’ prices, customers will discover something new every time they shop. This will be the 160 store to open in the state, giving even more consumers access to Burlington’s wide variety of “wow” deals. Originally known as a coat retailer, today, Burlington is proud to offer customers amazing deals on top-quality branded merchandise for the entire family and home.
“Delivering incredible value on brand-name and on-trend merchandise is at the heart of what we do,” said Michael O’Sullivan, CEO, Burlington Stores. “Opening a new, modernized store in Mercedes is an exciting step for us as we continue expanding Burlington locations nationwide. We look forward to giving local Mercedes customers the chance to explore great savings, find fresh brands, and experience our new and improved store design.”
The new location features Burlington’s reimagined store design, which reflects Burlington’s broader strategy to modernize stores, making it easier for shoppers to find the brands they know and love. In 2026, Burlington plans to open 110 net new stores across the country, all featuring this refreshed format. Wider, more organized aisles and bold signage allow for easier store navigation to the latest must-have trends.
