This spacious, well-stocked Pier 1 Imports store is located in the Southbridge Crossings Mall on the southwest corner of Highway 169 and County Road 18. More than most chain retailers, Pier 1 emphasizes originality and one-of-a-kind items from around the world. That includes merchandise such as colorful textiles, exotic furniture from the tropics or hand-painted dinnerware. For example, Pier 1 was the first U.S. retailer to import the iconic papasan wicker chair, back in the 1960s. For something unique, try Pier 1.
