History
Founded in 1979 with one store in Schertz, Texas, the brand was created as Garden Ridge Pottery and was later renamed simply, Garden Ridge.
Investment firm Three Cities Research became the largest shareholder of Garden Ridge in 1999. Garden Ridge filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2004 amid failed lease negotiations and underwent a major reorganization that included closing ten stores in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Florida, Ohio, and Tennessee. After the reorganization, the corporation emerged from Chapter 11 in 2005.
AEA Investors acquired Garden Ridge in October 2011.
In 2014, the company converted all stores to the At Home brand and floorplan, painting everything grey (from Garden Ridge's characteristic orange).
The company publicly filed an S-1 on September 4, 2015.
As of 2018, At Home operated more than 136 stores in 33 U.S. states.
