History
Founded in 1979 with one store in Schertz, Texas, the brand was created as Garden Ridge Pottery and was later renamed to simply Garden Ridge. In 2014, the company converted all stores to the At Home retail concept, repainting everything from orange to grey. The company currently operates more than 80 stores in 21 states across the U.S.
AEA Investors acquired Garden Ridge in October 2011.
Prior to this, the chain was privately held by Three Cities Research. Garden Ridge declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2004 due to failed lease negotiations and underwent major reorganization closing ten stores in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Florida, Ohio, and Tennessee. After restructuring, the corporation emerged from Chapter 11 in 2005.
