Cerritos Best Plaza is conveniently located off the 605 and right across the street from Los Cerritos Center where Nordstrom has operated a full-line store since 1981. The addition of Nordstrom Rack is part of an overall redevelopment project at the plaza which will include new to market retailers and restaurants.

"Our new Rack at Cerritos Best Plaza will be right across the street from our Nordstrom store at Los Cerritos Center and offer an additional way to shop for the brands our customers love at great prices," said Geevy Thomas, president of Nordstrom Rack. "Many of our best Rack stores are across the street from our best full-line stores. We know our customers like the convenience of shopping both."

Nordstrom Rack is the off-price retail division of Nordstrom, Inc., offering customers a wide selection of on-trend apparel, accessories and shoes at an everyday savings of 30-70 percent off regular prices. The Rack carries merchandise from Nordstrom stores and Nordstrom.com, as well as specially purchased items from many of the top brands sold at Nordstrom. The Rack is designed to provide the ultimate treasure hunt to style-savvy customers.

"We are very happy to welcome Nordstrom Rack to Cerritos as we begin a complete remodel and revitalization of the Best Plaza," said Fred Bruning, CEO of CenterCal Properties. "Over the course of 2015 visitors will see many new stores, new architecture and landscaping and even a new name as we reimagine this center as one of the finest open-air shopping centers in Southern California."
