Melbourne, get ready to maxx out that credit card because the global fashion and lifestyle retailer TK Maxx is opening its first-ever flagship store in Australia right here in our city.
Landing in Bourke Street Mall this spring, the new CBD store will be TK Maxx's largest in the country. Set across two expansive levels, the new store promises an even bigger and better trove of affordable fashion, homewares, with bargains aplenty.
Owned by US retail giant TJX Companies, TK Maxx was first launched in the States in 1976, and now operates more than 600 stores worldwide, including outlets in the UK, Ireland, Germany, and Poland.
Known for its "big brands at small prices" philosophy, TK Maxx has since built a loyal fanbase amongst Melburnians, with 20 stores already open across the city – including the popular Spencer Outlet Centre location.
The highly anticipated flagship, however, will be in another league altogether. Shoppers can expect a vast range of women's, men's, and kids' clothing, plus accessories, footwear, beauty buys, gifts, and an ever-changing selection of homeware finds. The brand's off-price model means stock is updated several times a week, so there will always be something new to discover.
"We're absolutely thrilled to be opening our first TK Maxx flagship store on Melbourne's iconic Bourke Street this spring," said TK Maxx Australia spokesperson Tony Dunseath. "We can't wait to bring new and existing fans even more of their favourite big brands at small prices in our largest store yet."
We're afraid to say there's no confirmed opening date just yet, but we'll be keeping our eyes peeled - and our wallets ready to do some damage.
