“It’s always great to fill those large, empty, big-box tenant spaces that sometimes can be pretty difficult to fill,” said Sandra Pereira, associate city planner of Beavercreek. “We’ve been really lucky in being able to get stores like Furniture Fair…and Ross to go into those spaces that have been sitting open for some time now.”
Ross Dress For Less, a discount retailer is expected to open soon, and is hiring now, for its Beavercreek store down the street from upcoming Furniture Fair. Resale womens apparel store Clothes Mentor will also open later this month in the area.
