Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. has signed a Letter of Intent to acquire the equity interests and substantially all assets of F9 Brands, Inc., which owns and operates Lumber Liquidators and Southwind Building Products. The company says this will expand its ability to serve customers across the full lifecycle of homeownership, from design and product selection to installation and financing.
The transaction is expected to close after the company’s annual shareholder meeting in May 2026 and customary due diligence, definitive documentation, and regulatory approvals if needed.
In addition to the standalone Cabinets To Go and Lumber Liquidators stores, BBBY customers will have access to F9 Brands’ products and services through the Custom Spaces section of The Container Store/Bed Bath and Beyond stores. The company will leverage more than 2.2 million square feet of retail space to create full-service home project centers where customers can design, purchase, finance, and install complete home solutions.
Jason Delves is set to serve as chief executive officer of Beyond Home Services and join the executive leadership team of BBBY. Delves has served as president and CEO of F9 Brands since 2019.
Lumber Liquidators has more than 200 stores nationwide. Southwind Building Products supplies flooring and building materials to a network of 4,400 independent retailers and contractors across the country.
