Bob’s to open furniture store in Pennsylvania

Manchester’s Bob’s Discount Furniture said it will open a new Pennsylvania store next month.

The new 35,000-square-foot store, opening Oct. 9 in Springfield, Penn., is the third the chain has opened in the Keystone State this year.

Bob’s has more than 50 store on the East Coast and is looking for further expansion. Earlier this year, it sold a majority stake to Bain Capital.
