Macy’s Inc., one of the nation’s premier retailers, is planning to open two new Bloomingdale’s Outlet stores in November 2015. One of the outlets will be located at The Shops at Liberty Place (1625 Chestnut St.) in Center City Philadelphia while the other will be situated in Westfield Mission Valley in San Diego.

At the moment, there are 13 Bloomingdale’s Outlet locations that operate in nine states. The upcoming stores, along with a previously announced location set to open in November 2015 at 2085 Broadway (on the northwest corner of 72nd Street) in the heart of Manhattan’s Upper West Side, will bring their number to 16.

Both the Philadelphia and San Diego outlets will spread across approximately 20,000 square feet on one level and offer a range of off-price apparel and accessories in a compelling combination of fashion, quality and value.

“We are excited about the continued expansion of Bloomingdale’s Outlet stores,” Tony Spring, chairman & CEO of Bloomingdale’s, said. “In addition to our upcoming Manhattan location, Philadelphia and San Diego are powerful markets with outstanding destinations for our customers. We look forward to serving both communities with great value, savings, and style.”

First introduced in 2010, the Bloomingdale’s Outlet concept includes stores in California, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey, Texas, Virginia, and now Pennsylvania.
