MURRAY, Utah and NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Bed Bath & Beyond, Inc. (NYSE: BBBY) and The Brand House Collective, Inc. (Nasdaq: TBHC) announced that Nora Gomez has been appointed Chief Merchandising Officer for Bed Bath & Beyond and its family of brands, driving unified product strategy and accountability across the entire portfolio.

Gomez is a proven retail leader with over 20 years of experience in assortment strategy, global sourcing, and multi-channel execution. She most recently served as Chief Merchandising Officer at Nebraska Furniture Mart consistently improving merchandising performance and value perception.

Amy Sullivan, CEO of The Brand House Collective, said, "Nora has proven ability to drive margin expansion, inventory productivity, and customer transaction growth – ensuring that our e-commerce platform and our 250+ stores deliver on our omnichannel vision for each brand. From bedrooms and bathrooms to kitchens, backyards, and kids' spaces, Nora brings the merchandising discipline to deliver quality and value at every price point – understanding that profitable growth happens when you get the whole-home offer right."

"This is a major addition as we enter 2026," said Marcus Lemonis, Executive Chairman and Principal Executive Officer of Bed Bath & Beyond. "Nora brings the operational precision Amy and I are looking for – delivering the right product in the right place at the right time while expanding customer reach, revenue, and margin across every category that supports life inside the four walls of the home and the four corners of the property."

"Everything begins with the customer," said Gomez. "My focus is simple – drive growth, improve profitability, and make every decision through the lens of the customer, ensuring they experience great design, real value, and confidence in every purchase."

The home furnishing retailer, which was founded in 1971 in New Jersey, has undergone several transformations since then. Financial struggles led to bankruptcy and store closures in 2023, however Beyond Inc., formerly known as Overstock.com, acquired the brand in mid-2023. Later, under exec Marcus Lemonis, BBB acquired Kirkland's Home and the retailer is being revived online and through physical stores.
