Two major retailers are starting the year off with the announcement of store closures.
Macy’s and Kohl’s are each shuttering dozens of locations nationwide.
Macy’s announced that 66 locations will be closed as part of a previously announced multi-year downsizing, CNN reported.
The company had not said which stores were closing, until last week.
In all, Macy’s will have closed 150 underperforming stores by 2026, cutting the number of locations to 350 when complete.
Tony Spring, Macy’s Inc. chairman and CEO, said in a news release, “Closing any store is never easy, but as part of our Bold New Chapter strategy, we are closing underproductive Macy’s stores to allow us to focus our resources and prioritize investments in our go–forward stores, where customers are already responding positively to better product offerings and elevated service.”

Some stores on the list closed during FY2024. The majority of those remaining on the list will close during the first quarter of this year, the company said.
Macy’s is not the only retailer to announce store closures to start the year. Kohl’s is also closing 27 stores by April, The Associated Press reported.
The stores are located in 15 states and is only about 2.3% of the company’s 1,150 locations.
Company officials did not say how many employees would be losing their jobs, but they have all been told about the closures and were offered a “competitive severance package.” They also have the opportunity to apply to for open jobs at other locations.
“As we continue to build on our long-term growth strategy, it is important that we also take difficult but necessary actions to support the health and future of our business for our customers and our teams,” said Tom Kingsbury, interim CEO, current board member and adviser for the new CEO who takes over this week.
