The Nordstrom Rack River Ridge store on Highway 280 is relocating to The Summit.

The Seattle-based Nordstrom, Inc. announced their plans to move and open its popular trendy store by spring 2023. The present location is the only Nordstrom Rack in the state of Alabama.

We have been focused on offering a mix of quality brands that cater to different lifestyles, sizes and trends, to fit every customers’ style needs.”

According to the company, the size of the new location will be approximately 27,000-square-feet.

A part of the off-price retail division of Nordstrom, Inc.,The Rack offers customers up to 70 percent off on-trend apparel, accessories, beauty, home and shoes from many of the top brands sold at Nordstrom stores. 

The Rack carries merchandise from Nordstrom stores and Nordstrom.com, as well as specially purchased items from many of the top brands sold at Nordstrom. The Rack is the number one largest source of new customers to Nordstrom and serves as a great introduction for new customers who may have never shopped at one of Nordstrom stores. 

For loyal customers of The Rack at River Ridge, the move is fortunately just a mile or two down the 280. Hopefully details about the relocation will be forthcoming soon from Nordstrom.
