Luxury retailer Overstock seeks growth in the high-end market, partnering with esteemed brands Rolex and Patek Philippe.
Beyond Inc., the parent company of Bed Bath & Beyond, has unveiled a comprehensive growth strategy aimed at creating long-term value. The strategy centers around expanding its luxury goods offerings, reintroducing physical retail, and investing in blockchain assets.
Luxury Goods Expansion
Beyond is pivoting towards premium, high-end market segments such as fine jewelry, luxury watches, and high-end furniture. This strategic shift targets affluent, less price-sensitive customers to accelerate revenue growth and improve gross profit margins significantly above current levels. The company is also expanding private label offerings and leveraging customer data for personalization to increase customer loyalty and wallet share with minimal incremental costs.
Brick-and-Mortar Stores
To complement its strong e-commerce base, Beyond is reintroducing physical retail through a small-format Bed Bath & Beyond Home store model. The first of these stores will open in Nashville, Tennessee. This approach is designed to be smart, scalable, and community-focused, bringing iconic brands back to physical shopping experiences.
Investment in Blockchain Assets
Beyond is actively unlocking and monetizing value embedded in its blockchain-related holdings, including tZERO, GrainChain, and Medici portfolio CVRs. The company views increased institutional and regulatory acceptance of digital assets as an opportunity to generate new high-margin revenue streams. Beyond continues strategic investments in blockchain technologies aligned with its business ecosystem.
Supporting aspects of Beyond’s transformation include disciplined margin management and expense reduction, with gross margin improving to 23.7% in Q2 2025 and aiming for 25% by year-end, alongside operating expense cuts to sustain profitability.
Other Aspects of Beyond's Transformation
Beyond operates a core e-commerce business but has a goal to continue deploying capital intelligently in the blockchain, bitcoin, and crypto space. Beyond is also involved in the blockchain and agriculture company GrainChain.
Overstock will expand its existing luxury goods offerings to differentiate itself from the Bed Bath & Beyond banner. The company plans to open at least four stores and will include brands like Rolex in its expanded fine jewelry and fine watch category, launching in Q3.
In summary, Beyond Inc. is pursuing a multi-pronged growth strategy that integrates premium luxury product expansion, a tactical return to physical retail through small-scale stores, and leveraging blockchain assets for innovative revenue channels, all underpinned by operational efficiencies and digital commerce enhancements.
