Burlington Stores to Relocate HQ to Philadelphia in $370M Deal, Creating 2,000 Jobs Over Five Years
Philadelphia is a city in Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania (a consolidated city-county). Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle L. Parker and Department of Community and Economic Development Secretary Rick Siger announced in October that the Commonwealth has secured a $370 million investment from Burlington Stores Inc. to relocate its corporate headquarters to Philadelphia.
The Commonwealth is investing $30 million to support the project. The company is purchasing property at 3151 Market Street in West Philadelphia's Schuylkill Yards district to serve as Burlington's headquarters, and will create at least 2,000 new jobs over the next five years.
Burlington Stores is one of the fastest-growing retailers in America, operating 1,300 stores across 47 states as of August 1, 2026.
The Shapiro Administration said Pennsylvania is the only Northeast state with a growing economy and the region's top state for business. Since taking office, the administration has competed for and won more than $43 billion in private-sector investments that are creating nearly 29,000 jobs and driving economic growth across the Commonwealth.
