BJ’s Wholesale Club will open its first location in Tennessee, 20 miles south of Nashville in La Vergne as part of a push for growth in 2023.
The store is expected to open within the first half of the year, according to a Thursday press release from the Marlborough-based retailer.
Other club locations will open in Davenport, Florida, and McDonough, Georgia, later this month.
“Our club openings in Davenport and McDonough are part of our continued growth within the Orlando and Atlanta markets, respectively,” Bill Werner, BJ’s executive vice president, strategy and development, said in the press release. “Additionally, the opening of our club in La Vergne represents the first of what will be multiple locations in the greater Nashville market.”
Each new BJ’s Wholesale Club location is expected to create approximately 150 jobs for its respective community, totaling approximately 450 jobs for the first half of the year within BJ’s newest club openings, according to the press release.
BJ’s Wholesale Club operates 235 clubs and 164 gas stations in 18 states. It is traded on the New York Stock Exchange with a market cap of more than $10 billion, as of Friday morning.
