BJ's Wholesale Club is adding five clubs to its growing portfolio across the United States. The expansion includes plans for a new club in Madison, Ala., increasing the retailer's footprint to 20 states.

BJ’s also will open clubs in Mt. Juliet, Tenn., Johnson City, N.Y., Lewis Center, Ohio and North Jacksonville, Fla. These clubs add to BJ’s 2023 roster of openings, following the retailer’s newest locations in Davenport, Fla., and McDonough, Ga., as well as the recent announcement of the company's first-ever club in the state of Tennessee, slated to open this summer in LaVergne.

All five newly announced locations will include a BJ’s gas station, providing members with even more ways to save through the wholesaler's Fuel Saver Program and enhanced membership tiers, the company said.

“We are always striving to bring our BJ’s membership model to new markets and even more smart-saving families,” said Bill Werner, executive vice president of strategy and development at BJ’s Wholesale Club. “We have seen tremendous success with our newest openings. Our expansion into Tennessee and Alabama shortly thereafter is a great example of our efforts to meet the demand for the value, convenience, and assortment that BJ’s has to offer its growing member base.”

Members can choose from various shopping options like in-club shopping, curbside pickup, in-club pickup, same-day delivery and standard delivery from its website. When shopping in-club, members will have access to ExpressPay through BJ’s mobile app, which allows shoppers to scan products as they go and avoid the checkout line at the end of their trip.

The wholesale retailer offers a one-stop shopping experience with a vast selection of fresh foods, produce, a full-service deli, household essentials, pet supplies, exclusive offerings and more, the company said. The new clubs also will carry local and seasonal items, as well as home décor, apparel, toys, and the latest in tech, among other things.

Members will find:

Up to 25% off grocery store prices every day on everything they need for weekly shopping;
Brand-new on-site gas stations, equipped to help shoppers reach their destinations faster; Plus, members can save through BJ’s Fuel Saver Program;
Shoppers can try BJ’s risk-free with the company’s 100% money-back guaranteed membership; and
BJ’s coupons + manufacturers’ coupons: Members can stack savings using BJ’s coupons on top of manufacturers’ coupons.

Members can take advantage of the new, upgraded BJ’s One Mastercard program, BJ’s recently announced partnership with Capital One. The program allows members to earn never-expiring rewards and savings at BJ's Gas. In addition, it will provide a first-class rewards and customer service experience for members, the company said. Cardholders earn up to 5% back in rewards on most BJ's purchases, and up to 2% back in rewards everywhere else Mastercard is accepted, in addition to up to 15 cents off per gallon at BJ’s Gas.

Each new BJ’s Wholesale Club location is expected to create approximately 150 jobs for its respective community, and hiring is expected to start soon for these new locations. Those looking to learn more about becoming a team member can visit here.
