Costco issues an urgent statement in the United States: it's imminent

The American chain has once again captured attention with an announcement that directly affects thousands of consumers. Its growth rate not only continues, but is accelerating to a level that few expected. In a context marked by fierce competition in the sector, the company's move has not gone unnoticed.

Costco has confirmed that they will open four new stores in the United States during August. The chosen locations are strategic: The Villages (Florida), Richland (Washington), Allen (Texas), and Spring Valley (Nevada). The first two already have set dates, August 6 and 8 respectively, while the other two are pending official confirmation.

New openings in August and an ambitious goal

This announcement is part of a long-term strategy with clear goals. Costco has stated their intention to open between 25 and 30 new branches per year, which confirms their leadership in the retail sector. According to data from USA Today, these four new stores represent only a part of a broader plan that also includes other regions of the country.

In addition to the openings planned for August, so far this year Costco has already opened stores in places like Brentwood and Highlands (California), Sharon (Massachusetts), and Prosper (Texas). They have also grown in the state of Florida, with a store in Stuart, and have expanded their presence in Michigan with an opening in Genesee. This reinforces their commitment to the American market, where they remain one of the giants of wholesale trade.

The pace of expansion responds to a demand that keeps growing. In the words of their spokespersons, "The priority is to make access to our products easier in more regions of the country." This strategy not only seeks to increase sales, but also to build loyalty among the more than 124 million members that Costco has globally.

Global presence and expansion beyond the US

Although the main focus remains the United States, Costco is also strongly committed to international expansion. During the same month of August, they will open new branches in Rimouski (Quebec) and northern Guadalajara (Mexico). This way, they consolidate their position in North America, adding new locations to those already existing in Canada and Mexico.

The chain already has a presence in countries such as Japan, Australia, South Korea, and Sweden, where they have also recorded recent openings. For example, in Japan they have opened a store in the Minami Alps, while in South Korea they have opened in Pyeongtaek. They have also arrived in Malmö, Sweden, and Ardeer, Australia.

This international expansion shows the strength of Costco's business model. Their offering of varied products, low prices, and membership strategy continues to attract millions of customers. In a context of economic uncertainty, the company positions itself as a solid and reliable option.
