Discount Home Goods Store Joins G’Town Retail Center

The first Home Centric in the market, a discount home goods store owned by Beall’s Inc., is on its way to Shops of Forest Hill in Germantown.

The 14,400-square-foot retailer will be located next to Sprouts Farmers Market in the Target-anchored shopping center at the corner of Poplar Avenue and Forest Hill-Irene Road.

Home Centric’s buyers offer an ever-changing assortment of value-priced home products, including furniture, home decor, kitchenware, linens, beauty products, luggage and electronics.

Items are discounted up to 70 percent off other stores’ prices. The store is anticipated to open in September with a grand opening event Sept. 27-30, in which the first 150 customers in line will receive a scratch-off card. One customer each day will win a $250 shopping spree.

Home Centric signed its lease with landlord and owner Epic Real Estate Partners on April 17.

The Shopping Center Group’s Robert Sloan and Dustin Jones facilitated the deal on behalf of the landlord.

With the Home Centric lease, the 348,000-square-foot Shops of Forest Hill is nearly 90 percent leased. Available space includes a 25,000-square-foot box space as well as shop space ranging from 1,200 to 5,000 square feet. Other tenants include Malco Theatres, Marshalls, Soul Fish Cafe and Cork’s Wine & Spirits.
