<p>這兩家公司終於走到了一起。</p>
<p>Beyond 一直在考慮對 The Container Store 進行投資，早在 2024 年底就考慮過以 4000 萬美元的投資獲得 40% 的股份和戰略合作關係。當這一計劃最終被擱置後，The Container Store 便走上了破產法庭以鞏固其財務狀況。</p>

<p>除了引入 LaRose，Amy Sullivan 將擔任 Beyond 總裁，“負責整個企業的業績和整合”，並將監督包括 Overstock.com、Bed Bath &amp; Beyond、The Container Store、Kirkland’s 和 BuyBuy Baby 在內的零售品牌，致股東信中提到。現任首席營銷官 Lisa Foley 將擔任首席運營官。而在 Elfa 擔任十年的 Anders Hahn 將成為 Elfa 的首席執行官。</p>
<p>該公司還已完成收購 The Brand House Collective（前身為 Kirkland’s Home）的交易。Beyond 的商業戰略基於提供 “萬物家居生態系統”，正如 Lemonis 在社交媒體上之前所描述並在週四的信中重申的那樣。這包括區塊鏈、投資、家居服務和家居融資。</p>
<p>現在它還包括衣櫥組織和存儲等 The Container Store 的特色產品。</p>
<p>The Container Store 在一年多前退出破產，並在 2025 年進行了重大變革。除了引入新的高層領導外，該公司的首席商品官離職，約 70 人，即 2% 的員工被解僱，資本項目也暫停。該零售商還採取措施徹底改革其產品組合，暗示許多供應商曾在剝削其產品，這一打擊讓許多長期供應商感到困惑。</p>
<p>大多數門店似乎仍會保持開放，儘管任何門店都將被品牌化為 “The Container Store / Bed Bath and Beyond”。Lemonis 表示，公司已經研究 The Container Store 的業務超過一年半，“因為它不僅帶來了超過 100 個優質門店，還帶來了與我們正在建立的標準相一致的文化和運營紀律。這些門店代表了超過 220 萬平方英尺的優質零售空間。”</p>
<p>這些門店的家居服務將擴展到包括地板、照明、廚房、洗衣房和浴室櫥櫃，以推動收入和擴大利潤。Beyond 還預計此次收購將在完全整合 Kirkland’s Home、The Container Store、Elfa 和 Closet Works 後的 12 到 18 個月內 “實現至少 4000 萬美元的年度成本節約和生產效率。”</p>

<div class="lb-trans"><h3>深度洞察：</h3>
</div><p>These two are finally getting together.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>這兩家公司終於走到了一起。</p>
</div><p>Beyond has contemplated investing in The Container Store for a while, in late 2024 considering a $40 million outlay for a 40% stakeand strategic partnership. When that was ultimately shelved, The Container Store headed to bankruptcy court to shore up its finances.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>Beyond 一直在考慮對 The Container Store 進行投資，早在 2024 年底就考慮過以 4000 萬美元的投資獲得 40% 的股份和戰略合作關係。當這一計劃最終被擱置後，The Container Store 便走上了破產法庭以鞏固其財務狀況。</p>
</div><p>Now, with the addition of The Container Store to its home-oriented conglomerate, Bed Bath &amp; Beyond is taking what Lemonis calls “a critical step” and “the beginning of our next phase of growth.”</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>現在，隨着 The Container Store 的加入，Bed Bath &amp; Beyond 正在採取 Lemonis 所稱的 “關鍵步驟”，並 “開啓我們下一個增長階段的開始”。</p>
</div><p>“This transaction will fill critical gaps in both our retail and home services strategy,” he said. “As we build our company platform, any additional assets including talent must serve a clear purpose to our company’s long-term strategy.”</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>“這筆交易將填補我們零售和家居服務戰略中的關鍵空白，” 他説。“在我們構建公司平台時，任何額外的資產，包括人才，必須為我們公司的長期戰略服務。”</p>
</div><p>That strategy is based on three elements: an omnichannel retail pillar, a products and services pillar and a home services pillar. The Container Store will join will join Bed Bath and Beyond, Overstock.com, BuyBuy Baby and Kirkland’s in omnichannel retail, while Elfa and Closet Works will anchor home services, Lemonis said.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>該戰略基於三個要素：全渠道零售支柱、產品和服務支柱以及家居服務支柱。Lemonis 表示，The Container Store 將與 Bed Bath &amp; Beyond、Overstock.com、BuyBuy Baby 和 Kirkland’s 一同加入全渠道零售，而 Elfa 和 Closet Works 將成為家居服務的支柱。</p>
</div><p>In addition to bringing on LaRose,Amy Sullivan will be Beyond president, “responsible for the performance and integration of the entire enterprise,” and will oversee the retail brands, including Overstock.com, Bed Bath and Beyond, The Container Store, Kirkland’s and BuyBuy Baby, per the letter to shareholders.Lisa Foley, now chief marketing officer, will be chief operating officer. And Anders Hahn, who has been Elfa president for a decade, will be ElfaCEO.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>除了引入 LaRose，Amy Sullivan 將擔任 Beyond 總裁，“負責整個企業的業績和整合”，並將監督包括 Overstock.com、Bed Bath &amp; Beyond、The Container Store、Kirkland’s 和 BuyBuy Baby 在內的零售品牌，致股東信中提到。現任首席營銷官 Lisa Foley 將擔任首席運營官。而在 Elfa 擔任十年的 Anders Hahn 將成為 Elfa 的首席執行官。</p>
</div><p>The company also has closed on its deal to acquire The Brand House Collective(formerly Kirkland’s Home). Beyond’s business strategyis based on providing “The Everything Home Ecosystem,” as previously described by Lemonis on social media and reiterated in his letter Thursday.This includes blockchain, investing, home services and home financing.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>該公司還已完成收購 The Brand House Collective（前身為 Kirkland’s Home）的交易。Beyond 的商業戰略基於提供 “萬物家居生態系統”，正如 Lemonis 在社交媒體上之前所描述並在週四的信中重申的那樣。這包括區塊鏈、投資、家居服務和家居融資。</p>
</div><p>Now it also includes closet organization and storage, among other Container Store specialties.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>現在它還包括衣櫥組織和存儲等 The Container Store 的特色產品。</p>
</div><p>The Container Store exited bankruptcy a little over a year ago and spent 2025 making major changes. In addition to bringing on new top leadership, the company’s chief merchant left and about 70 people, 2% of its workforce, were let goand capital projects paused. The retailer also took steps to overhaul its assortment, implying that many vendors had been ripping it off, a crackdown that left many longtime suppliers scratching their heads.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>The Container Store 在一年多前退出破產，並在 2025 年進行了重大變革。除了引入新的高層領導外，該公司的首席商品官離職，約 70 人，即 2% 的員工被解僱，資本項目也暫停。該零售商還採取措施徹底改革其產品組合，暗示許多供應商曾在剝削其產品，這一打擊讓許多長期供應商感到困惑。</p>
</div><p>Most stores seem likely to remain open, though any that do will be branded as “The Container Store / Bed Bath and Beyond.” Lemonis said the company has studied The Container Store business for more than a year and a half “because it brings not only more than 100 trophy locations, but also a culture and operating discipline that aligns with the standards we are building. These locations represent over 2.2 million square feet of premium retail space.”</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>大多數門店似乎仍會保持開放，儘管任何門店都將被品牌化為 “The Container Store / Bed Bath and Beyond”。Lemonis 表示，公司已經研究 The Container Store 的業務超過一年半，“因為它不僅帶來了超過 100 個優質門店，還帶來了與我們正在建立的標準相一致的文化和運營紀律。這些門店代表了超過 220 萬平方英尺的優質零售空間。”</p>
</div><p>Home services at these locations will expand to include flooring, lighting, kitchen, laundry room and bathroom cabinetry, to drive revenue and expand margins.Beyond also expects the acquisition to “deliver at least $40 million of annualized cost savings and productivity efficiencies within 12 to 18 months from fully integrating Kirkland’s Home, The Container Store, Elfa, and Closet Works,” per Thursday’s filing.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>這些門店的家居服務將擴展到包括地板、照明、廚房、洗衣房和浴室櫥櫃，以推動收入和擴大利潤。Beyond 還預計此次收購將在完全整合 Kirkland’s Home、The Container Store、Elfa 和 Closet Works 後的 12 到 18 個月內 “實現至少 4000 萬美元的年度成本節約和生產效率。”</p>
