20 California Centers Magazine | August 2016 C C monthly basis, it's a legacy that con- tinues to evolve. Kirkland's success in the market- place is also the result of having cre- ated a great place to shop as well as to work. The company takes pride in knowing its product selection and the knowledge of its team members engender a passion for impacting its customers' decisions on home décor and gift purchases. An initial visit to a Kirkland's store reveals just how dis- tinctive the concept is in the market- place. Each store environment encour- ages both the associates and customers to explore new avenues of creative expression, and to have a passion for designing and outfitting their home interiors. This unique experience is continually being improved upon to keep the brand fresh in the minds of its loyal clientele, while simultane- ously attracting a new customer base. Kirkland's key categories of merchan- dise, that encompass every facet of home decorating and furnishings, include outdoor spaces; furniture for every room in the home; art and wall décor, mirrors, lighting, décor and pil- lows, rugs and curtains, kitchen and entertaining, gifts and holiday themed merchandise. Out of an overall store count num- bering approximately 345 units, there are currently 25 Kirkland's show- rooms in California, with new loca- tions opening throughout the state in the coming months and continuing into 2017. The projected number of new stores to be developed in 2016 is 35 to 40. All existing and new market regions in the U.S. are open to further growth, with preference for occupy- ing 4,500 to 8,000 square feet of space in lifestyle, power and upscale outlet centers, as well as enclosed super re- gional shopping centers, featuring na- tionally recognized co-tenants (with an emphasis on fashion-oriented and children's stores). A minimum front- age of 40 feet is needed, and a special requirement calls for convenient de- livery access. Ideal demographics will entail a minimum trade population of 250,000, reporting a mid to high level of household income.
