Further Out: What Costco Has Signaled for Fiscal 2027

On its most recent earnings call Costco said it plans 33 new warehouses in fiscal 2027, five of which are relocations.

Costco does not confirm opening dates more than about three months out, so the following U.S. sites have been reported locally as approved or under construction but have no announced date yet:

  • Scottsdale, Arizona
  • Downey and Fresno, California
  • Lake St. Louis, Missouri
  • Southborough, Massachusetts
  • Silver Spring, Maryland
  • Des Plaines, Illinois
  • Charleston County, South Carolina
  • Hillsborough County, Florida
  • Pompano Beach, Florida (targeted for fall 2027)

Recently Opened

Three warehouses that appeared on earlier versions of this list are now open for business: Guilderland (Albany), New York opened August 6, Stone Mountain, Georgia opened August 27, and the spring 2026 group in West Roseville and North Visalia, California; Liberty Hill, Forney and New Braunfels, Texas; and South St. George, Utah is all trading.

Opening dates come from Costco’s new-locations page and local reporting, and can shift. Costco typically confirms an exact date only a few weeks ahead.
