Two discount clothing retailers, Marshalls and Burlington, are set to open new stores next to each other in North Augusta. The stores will be located at Edgewood Square shopping center, managed by Coastal Equities, a Florida real estate company. The new buildout will feature Marshalls with a space of approximately 24,982 square feet and Burlington with about 26,342 square feet. This development marks a significant expansion for both retailers in the area, with the nearest Burlington currently located in Augusta and the closest Marshalls in Evans.

The opening of Marshalls and Burlington in North Augusta is expected to boost local retail options, providing residents with more choices for discount clothing. This expansion reflects the growing demand for affordable retail options in the region and is likely to increase foot traffic to the Edgewood Square shopping center. The presence of these major retailers could also stimulate economic activity in the area, potentially attracting more businesses and contributing to local job creation. The development underscores the importance of strategic retail expansion in meeting consumer needs and supporting local economies.
