Build-A-Bear Workshop is opening a new location at the Hershey Tanger Outlets in early 2025. This new location will be next to the Nike Store and will be about 2,200 square feet. It will occupy an area formerly used by Rue 21, which closed in June 2024.
However, this hasn’t been the only change to the Tanger Outlets lately. Stores such as BLACK+DECKER, and Simply Southern are being introduced into this mall complex as well.
According to the Central Penn Business Journal, Bob Ancharski, marketing director for Tanger Hershey said, “Build-A-Bear, BLACK+DECKER and Simply Southern are exciting additions to our community at Tanger Hershey. These popular brands resonate with our guests, bringing a new selection of toys and tools, as well as stylish apparel and home goods, to round out our diverse retail roster and further elevate the shopping experience.”
The Hershey Tanger Outlets is located at 46 Outlet Square.
