Uniqlo continues brick-and-mortar expansion

October 13, 2026/ Rudy Milian

Fast Retailing is accelerating store expansion of UNIQLO eventually aiming to grow to 3,545 stores worldwide. The chain is opening 35 new locations this fiscal year. North America and Europe remain key targets.

New locations include Miami and reopening a store in downtown San Francisco. The San Francisco grand reopening is meant to signal Uniqlo's renewed commitment to the city after its pandemic-era departure, with the brand now occupying a shuttered Old Navy space.
