Multiple New Offerings Coming to South Hill Mall

More than just Barnes & Noble: See what else is set to debut at South Hill Mall

South Hill Mall in Puyallup is filling the former Macy’s site, and has announced other new retailers coming to the mall between now and next summer. Pierce County Assessor-Treasurer online property portal

 

The former Macy’s retail space at South Hill Mall in the Puyallup area is set to be filled with a new discount retailer.

Discount Collection is scheduled to open June 1. According to a release this week from the mall’s communications team, the 114,400-square-foot store “will occupy a two-story space on the west side of the mall, near Round 1 entertainment.”

The retailer also has stores in Olympia and Auburn.

The store specializes in items tied to liquidation or overstock items from other stores, including Costco, Macy’s, Target, Amazon and Sam’s Club among others, offering products at steep discounts.

Macy’s announced closure of its store at the mall earlier this year.

Items for sale at the stores include appliances, furniture, shoes, clothes, camping gear, toys and electronics.

This month will see the opening of an Xfinity by Comcast storefront at the mall near Target. The 1,300-square-foot store will offer mobile devices, along with serving customers on internet and cable TV services contracts.

Next year, Hong Kong Market will open at South Hill Mall, set for the summer of 2026. According to the release, “This new supermarket will feature over more than 31,000 square feet of international food products, fresh produce, meat, fish and poultry.”

It added that “The Food Hall inside will satisfy those who crave handcrafted Bahn Mi sandwiches, traditional Chinese barbecue, spring rolls, Boba drinks and more.”

The Seattle-based international grocer will be along 94th Avenue East, near Red Robin.

The news of new storefronts comes on the heels of last week’s announcement of a new Barnes & Noble set to open at the mall in October.

The release also noted that the nearby 108-unit Homewood Suites by HIlton is nearing completion. The five-story extended-stay hotel is on the north side of the mall complex across from Regal Cinemas.
