July 12, 2023

Buy Buy Baby, the baby products retailer owned by Bed Bath & Beyond, is set to close its stores after a deal to save the chain fell apart. Brand management firm Go Global Retail, which owns Janie and Jack, was eager to acquire Buy Buy Baby but couldn’t reach an agreement on valuation. Dream on Me Industries, a little-known New Jersey-based retailer and former supplier to Buy Buy Baby, won the chain’s trademark and digital assets for $15.5 million in a bankruptcy court hearing.
