Specialty outdoor retailer REI Co-op announced plans to open 10 new stores in 2024, including in Glendale, Arizona and Rancho Mirage, California this summer.
REI will open 10 stores in 2024, including:
- Spring: Beavercreek, Ohio, and Beaverton, Oregon
- Summer: Glendale, Arizona, Ithaca, New York, and Rancho Mirage, California
- Fall: Albany, New York and Tulsa, Oklahoma
The co-op will open in previously occupied retail spaces at Arrowhead Promenade in Glendale, The River in Rancho Mirage, and St. George Place in St. George.
In addition, a full-service bike shop will be staffed with technicians to tune, repair and enhance the performance of all bikes. The new Utah location will also feature a ski and snowboard shop.
“Each of these communities has an abundance of easily accessible natural places to play in addition to proximity to iconic national parks where REI currently guides active adventures,” said Mary-Farrell Tarbox, REI vice president of Stores.
The co-op will announce details of three additional stores opening this year as contracts are finalized. Two stores have been announced for 2025 thus far – Durango, Colorado (spring) and St. George, Utah (fall).
