Five new businesses opened at Round Rock Premium Outlets in 2023 In 2023, a variety of new businesses opened in the Round Rock Premium Outlets, owned by Simon Malls. These include accessory, apparel and footwear retailers such as Box Lunch, Claire’s, Journeys Kidz, Lacoste and Merrell. The details Some of these retailers shared unique programs as part of their business practices when their storefronts launched in Round Rock. Box Lunch is a specialty retailer offering licensed and unlicensed pop culture-oriented merchandise. Located near the Polo Ralph Lauren entrance, the store occupies a space formerly home to toy store Toys Express. A portion of pro- ceeds from each purchase is used to provide meals for those in need, according to the company. Notably, representatives of outdoor outfitter Merrell said the Round Rock storefront is only its second in Texas. In addition to hiking and trail-running shoes, the store offers clothing for men and women. Meanwhile, Claire’s offers accessories, jewelry and toys; Lacoste specializes in men’s, women’s and children’s clothing; and Journeys Kidz sells a variety of children’s shoes and apparel.
