Japanese home goods store EBISU eyeing Overland Park debut

The new Overland Park store will be the first store in Johnson County for the Japanese lifestyle retailer.

An Asian lifestyle brand appears to be preparing for a Johnson County debut.

Japanese retailer EBISU has filed plans to open a new store in Overland Park, the brand’s first in the Kansas City metro area.

EBISU is coming to 9148 Metcalf Ave.

  • The store aims to take over a space at the Regency Plaza shopping center, just off 91st Street and Metcalf Avenue.
  • The Metcalf Antique Mall previously occupied that space, until it moved into a new space next-door at the same shopping center.
  • EBISU will also be near Natural Grocers and Cardboard Corner Cafe at the shopping center.

EBISU offers “curated” Asian goods

  • EBISU stores are stocked with a variety of items, from cosmetics and toys to kitchen and storage items.
  • The company also offers some edible items like chips, candy and bottled drinks.
  • EBISU also offers a rotating selection of seasonal items (such as holiday decor).

This marks the first EBISU in Johnson County

  • The new Overland Park store would also serve as the first in the wider Kansas City metro area.
  • The Japanese company’s flagship store opened in Osaka, Japan, in 2018.
  • Since then, EBISU has opened several stores in the United States — in states like New York, Texas, California and North Carolina.
