Buy Buy Baby – a recent history
Buy Buy Baby was formerly owned by Bed Bath & Beyond, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in April 2023. The Bed Bath & Beyond brand was sold to Overstock.com (which subsequently changed its name to Beyond) while the intellectual property of Buy Buy Baby was sold in July 2023 for $15.5 million to baby products company Dream on Me. (The stores for both brands all went dark as part of the bankruptcy.)
Under Dream's ownership, Buy Buy Baby announced it would close its fledgling brick-and-mortar operation and transform to a digital-first brand in October 2024. The retailer held going-out-of-business sales at its 10 physical stores, which were closed by the end of 2024.
Based in Murray, Utah, Beyond Inc. is an e-commerce-focused retailer with an affinity model that owns or has ownership interests in various retail brands. The company currently owns Bed Bath & Beyond, Overstock, Buy Buy Baby, and other related brands and websites as well as a blockchain asset portfolio.
