Overview
- Party City and Staples announced Tuesday a nationwide rollout that places Party City mini-stores in more than 700 Staples locations, with more sites planned through 2026.
- The in-store concept lets shoppers pick up balloons, décor and tableware while using Staples’ same-day printing for invitations, banners and signs in one trip.
- Party City products are now available on Staples.com, and scheduled balloon pickup through the website and app will launch in the coming weeks.
- Launch deals include buy two, get one free foil balloons and 40% off custom cards, invitations, posters, banners and yard signs.
- The pivot follows two bankruptcies and the closure of about 700 corporate stores, with Ad Populum steering a lower-cost rebuild timed to the high-demand graduation season.
