The Return of Toys“R”Us 

메이시백화점 400곳 내에 오픈 예정

 

 

장난감 스토어 토이자러스(Toys "R" Us)가 10월 14일 맨해튼 한인타운 인근 메이시백화점 (Macy's Herald Square) 7층에 오픈한다. 1만4천평방피트 규모.  

 

1957년 워싱턴 DC의 어린이 가구점 주인 찰스 라자러스(Charles Lazarus, 1923-2018)가 설립한 토이자러스는 한때 미국만 739개, 세계 37개국에 750개의 체인을 운영했다. 2001년 3천5백만 달러를 투여, 타임스퀘어에 11만 평방피트 규모로 바비 인형, 쥬라기 공원, 레고 등 테마별 레이아웃으로 본점을 오픈했지만, 2015년 폐업했다. 

 

2017년 파산신청으로 2021년까지 미, 영, 호주 지점을 모두 닫았다. 2018년 토리자러스를 인수한 WHP 글로벌은 2022년부터 메이시 백화점 내 400개 이상의 매장을 열 것이라고 발표했다.
