Highlighted: the sentence this signal was extracted from

Target is preparing to open eight more retail locations in the fall season, which would bring the total number of new stores for 2026 to 32. This move aligns with the company's overarching goal of exceeding 300 locations nationwide by 2035. The upcoming stores are planned for Mississippi, New York, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. This follows the 24 locations Target has already opened this year. These expansions fall under Target's 5 billion US dollar investment program for 2026, which also includes over 130 store renovations as well as increased funding for employee compensation and development. According to Target, the eight new locations are expected to create more than 2,000 jobs. The starting wage will range from 15 to 24 US dollars per hour, supplemented by benefits and free educational support. Adrienne Costanzo, Chief Stores Officer, emphasized that the drive to open new stores reflects a dedication to customers and local communities, starting with the store workforce. Seven of the eight new locations will exceed Target's typical store footprint of 125,000 square feet, reflecting the company's ongoing push towards larger formats. Most of these openings are scheduled for October 11, while the Lima, Ohio, location will follow on November 8.
