New retail businesses coming to Swansea have begun opening and setting opening dates.
Gator Investments had previously announced that coming to Swansea Mall Center at 58-66 Swansea Mall Drive is Aldi Supermarket, Five Below, PetSmart, and Burlington.
FiveBelow, with current spots in Fall River, Dartmouth, and Raynham, is known as a retail chain where most of their items are below $5. They opened on August 28th.
Burlington is located in Fall River, Dartmouth, and Seekonk and offers a wide selection of brand-name clothing, home decor, and more at discount prices. They opened on October 2nd.
Aldi, with current locations in Fall River, Dartmouth, and Raynham, is known for its exclusive brands and their Twice as Nice Guarantee where for any reason if you are not 100% satisfied with the quality of any product, they will replace the product and refund your money. According to the company’s website, the Swansea spot will open in November. The first 200 customers on November 5th will receive a Golden Ticket that could be worth up to $100. The first 200 customers will also receive a bag of ALDI goodies. There will be free totes while supplies last. There will also be a sneak peek on November 4th.
PetSmart, with locations in Fall River, Swansea, and Raynham, is a retail chain and pet superstore focusing on pet products and services. The store is expected to move from Route 6 and be operational by the first quarter of 2027.
Chairman of the Swansea Planning Board Jonathan Carreiro stated earlier this year that the development also includes plans for two restaurants—one with approximately 110 seats and another with about 60 seats. These restaurants are not part of the initial phases of the project and are planned for a later stage of the development.
