Amarillo, Texas Rumors Point To New Marshalls Store Opening Soon

Amarillo, Texas, has welcomed a lot of new businesses lately. Many name-brand businesses.  We are getting Long John Silver's back in town, and we now have a Qdoba.  I mean, c'mon, we got a Buc-ee's, which is huge!

All of these businesses started as rumors.   Someone will say, "I heard that (insert business here) is coming to Amarillo."  Then you won't hear anything for a while, and then you'll hear it again.  Soon, all the signs point to Amarillo getting this business.

Is Amarillo Getting a Marshalls?

That seems to be the latest rumor floating in the universe surrounding Amarillo.  If you don't know what Marshalls is, it is a department store where you can find clothing, shoes, and home goods all at discounted prices.

You might be thinking, "That sounds a lot like TJ Maxx."  You would be correct; they are very similar and owned by the same company, TJX Companies.

Why would a Marshalls Move Into Amarillo if We Already have a TJ Maxx?

That is a great question and warranted.  Some bigger cities have both, while smaller cities have one or another.  It is possible that Amarillo could handle two of these types of stores in the same city.

HomeGoods is also another company here in Amarillo that is owned by the TJX Companies.

HomeGoods started off as a rumor, but soon it proved to be real.   Keep in mind, in a lot of cities, Marshalls and HomeGoods are in one store together or in the same shopping center.  Joann's Fabrics is going out of business, and that would leave a big open building on Soncy just down from HomeGoods.

However,  the outlook of getting a Marshalls in Amarillo isn't good.  We reached out to Marshalls and asked, "Is Marshalls coming to Amarillo?"  According to a spokesperson for the company,

Thank you for reaching out. Although we appreciate your inquiry, Marshalls has not announced a new store for Amarillo at this time.

Keep in mind, they did the same thing to us about HomeGoods, they told us the same thing up until their press release went out about a grand opening.
