Toys R Us plans U.S. comeback with new flagship stores opening this year

Toys R Us is planning to open up to 24 new flagship stores in the U.S. this year.
The expansion includes stores at airports and on cruise ships, with the first airport location opening in November.
This marks a brick-and-mortar comeback for the toy retailer in the U.S. after filing for bankruptcy in 2018.
Toys R Us aims to capitalize on brand strength and increase global footprint with the new stores.
The parent company WHP Global acquired a controlling stake in Tru Kids, the company managing the Toys R Us brand, in 2021.
