Budget Japanese retailer Daiso will launch its first New Jersey store in Edgewater.

The store will open on August 3 as the second Daiso store in the Tri-State area. Daiso is quickly expanding its presence on the East Coast, with this location opening within just five months of the very first store in Flushing, New York last March. Three more Daiso stores are scheduled to open in the area this year.

The 7000sqft Daiso New Jersey store will feature products and styles including back-to-school, entertaining and organising supplies, and thousands of products including kitchenware, beauty supplies, stationery, gift wrap, greeting cards, electronics accessories, unique gift items, snacks, and party goods.

Daiso Japan averages 10 to 20 new store openings globally every month.
