Roses Discount Stores will continue to serve the Henderson area as a retailer at its Garnett Street location.

The Roses on Dabney Drive will continue to operate with its same store hours through September 30. However, the Dabney Drive location will then close.

A pair of corporate executives spoke to WIZS News Wednesday, and the company issued a statement.

“Unfortunately, we were unable to come to terms on a lease extension with the landlord for our Dabney Drive location after 54 years. We’re making changes and improvements to our Roses store at 1471 N. Garnett St. that will allow us to better serve all of our loyal customers. Each team member at the closing store has been offered a position within the company. We’re excited for the continued opportunity to serve Henderson and the surrounding communities for many years to come.”

Store executives expressed the company’s desire to remain at the existing Dabney Drive location, but in the absence of that option, committing to do more at the North Garnett Street location demonstrates at least part of the discount retailer’s desire to serve the area.

Also, Roses Discount Stores took to its Facebook page Tuesday to express, in bold red letters not unlike the ROSES brand itself, “THANK YOU DABNEY DRIVE,” for 54 amazing years!

Over the long term, additional opportunities may arise for a second Roses location in Henderson once again.

The local corporate underpinning is not affected by these retail changes.

The modern-day version of Roses is presently around 400 stores and growing, most recently with an expansion in Texas.
