Torrid Clothing Store Now Open in Woodbury

Torrid, a clothing store for women who wear sizes 12 to 26, officially opened Wednesday in Woodbury’s Tamarack Village.

“We’re already doing really, really well,” said Kari Rodriguez, store manager. “The customers seem like they’ve been excited for us to open.”

The store sells women’s clothing and shoes and accessories. A grand opening event is set for Saturday, April 27, featuring refreshments, scratch-off coupons and other promotions, Rodriguez said.

Torrid is located at 8278 Tamarack Village, suite 314, near Dick's Sporting Goods. There are four other Torrid stores in Minnesota.

Last month, Patch asked Jennifer Vides, director of brand and communications for Hot Topic, Inc., about the new Woodbury store.
