It seems that Gavin Newscum is now allowing Chinese groups to buy up the burnt out areas for pennies on the dollar.

Bed, Bath & Beyond won’t open stores in California. Here’s why
Published: Aug. 21, 2025 at 6:21 AM CDT
Bed, Bath & Beyond is opening stores again after filing for bankruptcy and closing all its stores in 2023, but there will not be any in California.
On Wednesday, Bed, Bath & Beyond’s executive chairman, Marcus Lemonis, explained why the company has decided not to open stores in the state.
“California has created one of the most overregulated, expensive, and risky environments for businesses in America,” he said in a statement.
Lemonis claims that the state’s “higher taxes, higher fees, higher wages” are unsustainable for many businesses.
“We’re taking a stand because it’s time for common sense. Businesses deserve the chance to succeed. Employees deserve jobs that last. And customers deserve fair prices. California’s system delivers the opposite,” he said.
California will still be able to shop at Bed, Bath & Beyond, but only online.
Lemonis said the company is investing in a “California strategy,” which will include same-day delivery, as well as 24- or 48-hour delivery.
California Governor Gavin Newsom’s Press Office said in a post on X that they “wish them well in their efforts to become relevant again.”
Bed, Bath & Beyond reopened its first store in Tennessee on Aug. 8.
