UNIQLO has continued its retail expansion in the United States with new store openings in major urban centers.

In late September 2026, the brand opened its 11th New York City location at the World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan. This site features a RE.UNIQLO Studio for clothing repairs and upcycling, as well as a UTme! print-on-demand service.

Following this, the retailer reopened in downtown San Francisco in October 2026. The new 20,000-square-foot flagship store at Market and 4th Streets serves as the company’s largest outlet on the U.S. West Coast, marking a return to the city after a previous location closed in 2021.
