A new Burlington store is set to arrive in Santa Maria, and this news is generating quite a buzz among local shoppers! According to an official announcement made by Burlington Stores Inc., one of the leading off-price retailers in the United States, they are planning to open a brand-new location in Santa Maria.
While the exact date for the grand opening remains under wraps, company representatives have shared that we can expect this new store to be operational by spring 2026.
KSBY News was the first to bring this exciting development to light earlier in 2025 when they spotted signs proclaiming "Burlington coming soon" at the site previously occupied by Big Lots! in the Stowell Shopping Center, located on the 1400 block of S. Broadway.
This upcoming store will be significant as it will represent Burlington’s 123rd outlet in California. A recent media release from the retailer highlighted that this new location will showcase a modern store design characterized by more spacious and organized aisles, along with prominent signage aimed at enhancing the shopping experience.
Burlington officials have stated that shoppers can look forward to an extensive selection of high-quality clothing for men, women, and children, all priced significantly lower—up to 60% off compared to other retail options. But that’s not all; the store plans to offer a variety of products including footwear, beauty essentials, home decor items, and even supplies for pet care.
As Burlington gears up for its new opening, the company is actively encouraging interested individuals to apply for job positions through their online portal. If you’re interested in becoming part of this new venture, you can find more information about available roles at Burlington’s career site.
