In January 2016 retail veteran Ronny Schmael revived the name as Circuit City Corporation after acquiring the brand from Systemax. On August 22, 2018, Circuit City officially relaunched the brand name as an online retailer and announced plans to begin operating a "stores within stores" chain. On their website as of early 2019, Circuit City referenced opening up retail storefronts around the country. The website is robust and offers a multitude of products. And the company is even sponsoring a NASCAR race car in partnership with H2 Motorsports. But, as of this writing, I could find no evidence of open storefronts.
