（NEXSTAR）——终于要来了：罗德岛将能享用1.50美元的热狗套餐、烤鸡以及仓储式购物。
(NEXSTAR) – It’s finally happening: Rhode Island is getting access to the $1.50 hot dog combo, rotisserie chickens, and warehouse shopping.
没错，好市多（Costco）计划在罗德岛开设首家仓储店。罗德岛州长候选人、好市多董事会成员海伦娜·福克斯周四向Nexstar旗下WPRI电视台证实了这一消息。该店预计将于2028年在普罗维登斯郊外的史密斯菲尔德开业，届时罗德岛居民将无需再开车去马萨诸塞州使用好市多会员卡。
That’s right, Costco is planning its first-ever warehouse in Rhode Island. Helena Foulkes, a candidate for Rhode Island governor and a member of Costco’s board, confirmed the news to Nexstar’s WPRI on Thursday. The store is expected to open in Smithfield, just outside of Providence, in 2028, thwarting the need for Rhode Islanders to drive to Massachusetts to use their Costco membership.
截至2026年10月，罗德岛曾是好市多最后未涉足的领地之一，仅剩西弗吉尼亚州和怀俄明州两个州仍在等待首家好市多开业。不过，它们的等待可能不会太久了。
Rhode Island was among the last uncharted territories for Costco. As of October 2026, only two other states, West Virginia and Wyoming, are still awaiting their inaugural Costco. They may not have to wait much longer, however.
今年3月，首席执行官罗恩·瓦克里表示，公司目标是在未来5到10年内每年开设30家或更多仓储店，这一表态呼应了首席财务官加里·米勒奇普的言论。其中大约一半将是美国的新仓储店，其余则分布在全球。瓦克里提到墨西哥、加拿大、亚洲、欧洲、澳大利亚和新西兰是未来仓储店的选址目标。
Back in March, CEO Ron Vachris said the company aims to open 30 or more warehouses annually over the next five to 10 years, echoing remarks from CFO Gary Millerchip. Roughly half would be new warehouses in the U.S., while the others would be worldwide. Vachris mentioned Mexico, Canada, Asia, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand as sites for future warehouses.
9月，瓦克里透露，这家批发零售商预计将在2027财年开设33家新仓储店，但其中5家属于“搬迁”性质。虽然这些新店的具体位置尚不完全明确，但瓦克里表示，将有5家在加拿大、4家在欧洲、1家在墨西哥。
In September, Vachris shared that the bulk retailer expects to open 33 new warehouses in fiscal year 2027, though five are considered “relocations.”While it’s not entirely clear where these new stores will be, Vachris said five will be in Canada, four in Europe, and one in Mexico.
瓦克里在财报电话会上补充道：“我们继续看到新仓储店增长的重大机遇，包括布法罗（纽约州）和劳伦斯（堪萨斯州）等美国新市场、我们较成熟美国市场的填补性网点，以及我们已进驻的国际市场。”
“We continue to see significant opportunities for new warehouse growth, including new U.S. markets such as Buffalo, New York, and Lawrence, Kansas, infills in our more mature U.S. markets, as well as international markets in which we operate,” Vachris added during an earnings call.
据好市多称，10月和11月将有14家仓储店开业——其中10家在美国。据《纽约邮报》报道，零售商未透露除此之外的开店计划；根据惯例，好市多不对开业时间超过三个月的选址发表评论。
There are 14 warehouses opening — 10 in the U.S. — across October and November, according to Costco. The retailer hasn’t shared store openings beyond that; it doesn’t comment on locations that are opening more than three months into the future, according to the New York Post.
然而，当地报道显示，Costco 正致力于在加利福尼亚州唐尼等地开设仓储式门店，该市今年早些时候批准了一项新建 Costco 的计划。南卡罗来纳州查尔斯顿县和佛罗里达州希尔斯伯勒县的仓储式门店计划也已在夏季提交。
Local reporting, however, shows Costco has been working to bring warehouses to places like Downey, California, which approved a plan for a new Costco earlier this year. Plans for warehouses in Charleston County, South Carolina, and Hillsborough County, Florida, were also submitted over the summer.
在加利福尼亚州弗雷斯诺、密苏里州圣路易斯湖、马萨诸塞州绍斯伯勒、马里兰州银泉、亚利桑那州斯科茨代尔和伊利诺伊州德斯普兰斯，相关工作也在推进中。其中德斯普兰斯的门店预计将是一个商业中心。
Efforts have also been underway in Fresno, California; Lake St. Louis, Missouri; Southborough, Massachusetts; Silver Spring, Maryland; Scottsdale, Arizona; and Des Plaines, Illinois. The latter is anticipated to be a business center.
今年 Costco 经历了一波增长高峰，已在亚利桑那州、加利福尼亚州、佛罗里达州、明尼苏达州、纽约州、得克萨斯州、犹他州和威斯康星州（以及墨西哥和台湾）开设门店。
Costco has been experiencing a bit of a growth spurt this year, already opening stores in Arizona, California, Florida, Minnesota, New York, Texas, Utah, and Wisconsin (as well as Mexico and Taiwan).
