"The brand will open 11 new stores across seven cities in spring and summer 2026, Uniqlo told Fast Company. The expanded fleet will include four new stores in New York City: three in Manhattan and an additional location in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn. The new locations come two decades after Uniqlo opened its first U.S. store in Manhattan's Soho neighborhood in 2006."
"Uniqlo currently operates 78 stores in the United States. The new stores will add to that tally, putting its U.S. footprint closer in size to that of Inditex-owned Zara, the Spanish fast-fashion chain, which has roughly 97 stores in the United States. Both are still relatively small in comparison to U.S.-based rival H&M Group, which reported 754 stores across North and South America as of August 31."
Uniqlo will open 11 new U.S. stores across seven cities in spring and summer 2026, including four new locations in New York City (three in Manhattan and one in Williamsburg, Brooklyn). Planned flagships are set for Chicago and San Francisco, with additional stores in Seattle, Boston, Washington, D.C., and the Annapolis Mall in Maryland. The company currently operates 78 U.S. stores; the additions will bring its footprint closer to Zara's roughly 97 U.S. locations but remain well below H&M's 754 stores across the Americas. The expansion focuses on targeted, high-quality store experiences amid 2025 retail headwinds and price-sensitive shoppers.
