Target's small-format store assortments are customized to meet the needs of local guests.

"This small-format store in Selden, NY will provide more options to Long Island guests, with a convenient, one-stop shopping experience customized to their neighborhood," Mark Schindele, senior vice president, Properties, Target said. "Our Selden store will offer residents a curated assortment of grocery needs, home goods, apparel and more. We are eager to expand our presence in Long Island and become an active partner in the Selden community."

Target has signed a lease with Kimco Realty for the Selden store, which will employ a total of 60 team members.
