Other planned New Jersey stores
Wayfair plans a full-format store at Nassau Park Pavilion in Princeton in 2027. 94.5 PST reported that the site was most recently occupied by Ocean State Job Lot and previously served as a Walmart; CBS News also reported the planned 2027 opening. NJBIZ reports that the Princeton store is expected to cover about 135,000 square feet.
A second planned location is in Cherry Hill, at Market Place at Garden State Park on Route 70. CBS News reports that the 86,000-square-foot store is expected to open in late 2028 and will include an on-site design studio. The Cherry Hill location is expected to be Wayfair’s 11th store overall.
Ocean Township outlet
The outlet is planned for 2341 Route 66, in the former At Home space at Seaview Square Shopping Center. 94.5 PST reported that the 25,000-square-foot store is scheduled to hold its grand opening on Friday, December 4.
PST reported that Wayfair considered the area’s customer base, its proximity to the company’s fulfillment center and the planned Princeton store when choosing Monmouth County. The outlet is expected to sell furniture, home décor and seasonal items, including Christmas trees; special savings are planned throughout the store for opening.
Statewide retail trends
The available data do not show how retail employment has changed specifically in Monmouth County. Statewide, the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development reports that retail employment and establishment counts decreased in recent years, while total wages continued to rise.
Policies for outlet purchases
Wayfair’s outlet FAQ says items are sold as-is and outlet purchases are final, with no returns accepted. For customers using Wayfair’s independent delivery carrier, the FAQ advises arranging pickup within seven days of purchase. These policies are described on Wayfair Outlet’s FAQ.
