Belk, Dillard’s, and JCPenney anchoring Westgate Mall Spartanburg in Spartanburg, South Carolina, at Interstate 85 and Westgate Mall Road, give the 720,000 square foot regional mall a three-anchor comparison-shopping platform for the Spartanburg, Boiling Springs, Cowpens, and Cherokee County household in the Upstate Carolina Piedmont. Rural King, the Mattoon, Illinois-founded farm supply, hardware, and general merchandise retailer whose October 2025 opening in the former Sears anchor box marked the first Rural King in the state of South Carolina, gives the property a commercial identity specific to the Upstate Carolina agricultural and rural household whose demand for farm supplies, livestock equipment, and work gear the mall corridor had lacked a large-format retail source to serve. Costco serves the warehouse grocery and general merchandise category as a large-format destination in the Westgate commercial node.
Dick’s Sporting Goods serves the sporting goods floor. Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft serves the home craft and fabric floor for the Upstate South Carolina quilting and textile heritage community. Johnston and Murphy serves the premium footwear and accessible professional fashion category. H&M, American Eagle, Hollister, Buckle, Express, and Hot Topic cover the accessible fashion floor. Journeys and Rack Room Shoes serve the footwear floor. Champs Sports, Finish Line, Foot Locker, and Nike serve the athletic footwear and licensed sports merchandise categories. Bath and Body Works and Hallmark serve the accessible beauty and gifts categories.
Helzberg Diamonds, Kay Jewelers, Pandora, Swarovski, and Zales give the property a five-operator jewelry and gifting floor. LensCrafters serves the optical retail category. The property, now managed by Namdar Realty Group, is undertaking a broader repositioning of the Westgate commercial corridor. The property’s commercial role in Upstate South Carolina is the Spartanburg I-85 regional mall: a Belk-Dillard’s-JCPenney comparison-shopping platform whose Rural King farm supply identity, Dick’s sporting goods floor, and comprehensive jewelry mix serve the Spartanburg and Cherokee County household as the primary enclosed retail destination in the western South Carolina Piedmont corridor.
