- Party City is making a comeback by partnering with Staples, opening in over 700 locations across the US, with more planned by the end of the year.
- The retailer, which previously shut down all its standalone stores after two bankruptcy filings, will now operate within Staples stores rather than reopening its own shops.
- Customers can find a range of party supplies, including helium-filled balloons, decorations, tableware, party favours, and costume accessories, alongside Staples' existing printing services.
- Joel Weinshanker, CEO of Ad Populum, owner of Party City, highlighted Staples' national footprint and strong community connection as key reasons for the partnership.
- Future plans include enabling customers to schedule balloon pickups in advance via Staples' website and app, with special launch deals currently available both in-store and online.
