Cherry Hill, N.J. — After more than six decades at Cherry Hill Mall, Spencer’s is opening the next chapter of its story with the relocation and grand opening of its original store. The new location officially opened on May 22, 2026.
The Cherry Hill Mall has been part of Spencer’s story since the very beginning. In 1963, the company opened its first brick-and-mortar store at the mall, launching what would become one of the most recognizable stand-out retailers in North America. More than 60 years later, Spencer’s remains one of the mall’s original retailers.
“Cherry Hill Mall is where the Spencer’s story began in 1963, and while our store may have a new location within the mall, the attitude remains unchanged,” says Steven Silverstein, CEO of Spencer’s. “This new space celebrates our history of the brand, delivering the fun, unexpected and unapologetically Spencer’s experience customers have loved for more than six decades.”
The updated store introduces a modernized design and enhanced shopping experience while honoring the location’s historic significance to the company. To commemorate the occasion, a plaque has been installed at the new location, recognizing when the store first opened.
“Spencer’s holds a special place in Cherry Hill Mall’s story; they started a legacy here that has defined generations,” says Lisa Wolstromer, senior marketing director at Cherry Hill Mall. “As one of the first enclosed malls in the country, we’ve been a launchpad for iconic brands for more than six decades. Spencer’s has been with us every step of the way, and we’re honored that the company chose to house its new space here. It’s a fitting tribute to that shared history.”
For more than 75 years, Spencer’s has been the destination for bold, edgy and must-have merchandise. The retailer began in 1947 as a mail-order catalog company and now operates more than 680 retail locations. For more information, visit www.Spencers.com.
