Kirkland's

Ownership

Kirkland's is a national retail chain based in Brentwood, Tennessee, operating 317 stores in 35 states. In September 2025, Bed Bath & Beyond acquired the Kirkland's Home brand and related assets, making it a corporate chain with no local ownership.

Local Sourcing

The company sources products from a variety of domestic and international vendors, focusing on quality and value. No evidence of local WI/regional supplier relationships found; sourcing appears to be entirely through corporate supply chain.

Community Involvement

The firm hosts events for Camp Charley and participates in ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and American Cancer Society Relay for Life, but these are national initiatives. Kirkland's Home sponsors Nashville's Heart Walk and partners with Habitat for Humanity on home decorating, but community involvement is primarily focused on Tennessee locations.

Local Workforce

Kirkland's employees rate their compensation and benefits as 2.4 out of 5 on Glassdoor. Pay is low for the amount of work required and especially low for associates, making it hard to retain great employees. The pay is very low for all the work involved, people keep quitting, and upper management does not value employees.

Revenue Retention

Kirkland's is headquartered in Brentwood, Tennessee, not Madison. As a large national chain, virtually all revenue flows to corporate headquarters and national distribution centers, with minimal economic benefit remaining in the Madison community.

Local Presence

This is a purely corporate, template-driven website with location selector ('Choose Local Store'), franchise boilerplate navigation, and no local personality, staff names, Madison references, or single-location focus. The text is a generic product category menu typical of large retail chains.
