Kohl’s is closing 27 stores. Here’s which locations are shutting their doors.
Kohl’s, the struggling department store retail chain, is planning to close dozens of “underperforming” store locations around the U.S. by April, the company announced.
“While Kohl’s continues to believe in the health and strength of its profitable store base, these specific locations were underperforming stores,” the company said in announcing the store closures.
Kohl’s said said employees at the affected stores will either be offered severance pay or the opportunity to seek work at another location. The publicly listed retailer operates more than 1,150 stores across the U.S.
Kohl’s will also shutter its San Bernardino E-commerce Fulfillment Center in May when the lease on the facility expires, as new technologies allow Kohl’s to fulfill more orders from its store locations.
Kohl’s said in November that its net sales for the third quarter fell nearly 9% from a year ago, $3.5 billion. The company reported net income of $22 million, down from $59 million for the same period in 2023. Kohl’s shares have fallen more than 50% of the last 12 months.
Many large brick-and-mortar retailers continue to shrink their physical footprint. For example, Macy’s late last year announced the closure of 66 stores as part of its turnaround strategy.
Retail industry closures soared in 2024, with more than 7,100 stores shutting down through the end of November — a 69% jump from the same time last year, according to research firm CoreSight.
