Ross Dress for Less opens 36 new stores. See where they are located.

Ross Stores announced earlier this month that it opened 36 Ross Dress for Less and four dd's DISCOUNTS stores across 17 states in September and October, concluding the company's plan to open 90 new locations in 2025.

"This fall, we continued to strengthen our brand presence by opening stores in existing markets and expanding in new markets," said Richard Lietz, Executive Vice President, Property Development, in an Oct. 13 news release.

"At Ross Dress for Less, we were excited to add locations in the Midwest as well as the Northeast, with new stores in Michigan, New Jersey, and New York, while also increasing our presence in the sunbelt states. At dd's, we enhanced our footprint in our core markets of California and Texas," Lietz said in the news release. "Looking ahead, we remain confident in our expansion plans and see plenty of opportunity to grow to at least 2,900 Ross Dress for Less and 700 dd's DISCOUNTS locations over time."

With the addition of the 90 stores this fiscal year, Ross Stores now operates a total of 2,273 Ross Dress for Less and DD's Discounts stores across 44 states, the District of Columbia, Guam and Puerto Rico, the company said.

According to the company, Ross Dress for Less is the "largest off-price apparel and home fashion chain in the United States" and offers "first-quality, in-season, name brand and designer apparel, accessories, footwear, and home fashions." The company says DD's features a more "moderately-priced assortment" of the same types of products.
