buybuyBABY Expands DFW Footprint

FRISCO, TX-buybuyBABY, a retail concept from Bed Bath & Beyond, has leased 32,746 square feet at South Frisco Village for its fourth store in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. The chain, which sells a variety of baby merchandise and competes with Babies’R'Us, signed a 10-year lease for the junior anchor space.

The new store, located at 2300 Preston Rd., will open this summer, according to Steve Lieberman, CEO of The Retail Connection, a Dallas-based retail real estate brokerage firm. He and David Fazio, also of The Retail Connection, represented buybuyBABY in the lease, while the landlord, Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America LP, was represented by Jeff Kittleson and Eric Fedro with CB Richard Ellis.

Lieberman tells GlobeSt. that buybuyBABY is expanding and has other locations planned in DFW. “buybuyBABY is one of Bed Bath & Beyond’s three growth vehicles in addition to Bed Bath & Beyond and Christmas Tree Stores,” he says. “The Retail Connection is currently working on several locations for Bed, Bath & Beyond’s brands throughout Texas and the Southwest.”
