The new Edgar & James store will be located on Atlantic Avenue, just north of Carson Street in the former Trader Joe’s site. An Edgar & James-branded donation center will be stationed adjacent to the store.
Bixby Knolls will serve as the second location where an Edgar & James store operates. In March 2016, Goodwill SOLAC opened its very first Edgar & James store in Redondo Beach.
“We have seen what Edgar & James has done for other communities and believe the store will help continue to activate our business district,” said Servando Orozco, president of the Bixby Knolls Business Improvement Association (BKBIA). “We are eager to see how they will transform the space and become a part of the pedestrian zone retail area.”
To give local residents an idea of the store’s structural appearance and merchandise, Goodwill SOLAC will staff an Edgar & James booth at the Aug. 5 First Fridays Art Walk hosted by the BKBIA.
