Over a dozen locations of a popular retail chain are closing around Arizona in an effort to address financial struggles.
National big box chain Big Lots, known for giving customers the opportunity to shop for discount home goods, is seemingly closing nearly 300 of its 1,389 stores around the country weeks after initially revealing plans to only close around 40 locations amid the company's financial struggles. Big Lots reported a $114.5 million sales decrease from the first quarter of 2023 to the first of 2024 and has seen a 84% drop in stock over the past year.
In an effort to address financial issues and stave off bankruptcy, the company appears to be shuttering hundreds of stores around the U.S.
Of the 34 Big Lots locations in the Grand Canyon State, 18 are set to close down, according to the company's website, which features a banner announcing the select location's closure alongside notice of a sale. Here are all the Arizona Big Lots stores set to shut down:
