Hoffman Estates, Ill.—Claire’s has a new retail partner, planning to launch in more than 4,400 Walgreens locations by the end of the month.

Its jewelry, as well as hair accessories, cosmetics, and seasonal pieces, will be available at select Walgreens stores via dedicated displays within the seasonal section.

“As a one-stop destination for everyday needs, Walgreens services millions of people every day. Together, we will extend Claire's trend-driven shopping experience to new and existing customers, giving Walgreens shoppers more to love, fostering deeper connections and inspiring self-expression,” said Claire’s CEO Ryan Vero.

Dale Johnson, Walgreens group vice president and general merchandise manager, said, “Walgreens is proud to offer a wide assortment of must-haves for its customers. Whether they’re wanting to purchase a thoughtful and unique gift, or treat themselves, adding Claire’s fashion accessories ensures customers have access to a wider variety of options.”

Claire’s has been growing its retail footprint via retailer partnerships in recent years.

Last October, Claire’s expanded into more than 700 Kohl’s stores across the U.S. In 2022, it signed a deal with Macy’s, rolling out to more than 125 locations, including eight of its flagships. 

Claire’s has more than 40 retail partners worldwide, including CVS, Amazon, Toys R Us, Kroger, Asda, and Tesco.
