Magnolia Mall is a shopping mall in Florence, South Carolina, near I-95. It is owned by PREIT. The mall opened in 1979, and underwent a renovation in 2008. It underwent a further renovation in 2019, adding H&M, Five Below, and Burlington.[3] Other major stores at the mall are Best Buy, Belk, Dick's Sporting Goods, and Tilt Studios. Burlington replaced a Sears which closed in 2017.[4] On June 4, 2020, JCPenney announced that it would close by around October 2020 as part of a plan to close 154 stores nationwide.[5] In October 2021, Tilt Studios opened in the former space occupied by JCPenney.[6]

Roses was an original tenant of the mall, and closed in 2002 to be replaced by Best Buy and the food court.[7]
