2016 appeared to be the year that numerous celebrities were lost, and many of them far too early in their young lives. As 2017 is just a mere five days old, there are already a number of losses taking place, but in an entirely different way. Sears, Kmart, and Macy’s have all announced that they are closing a huge amount of stores, and the full lists are now available. Check it and see if your nearest locations will soon be no more.
As reported by Fox 2 Now , a number of Kmart and Sears stores will be completely closed by the end of March of this year. Employees of the stores closing were informed by the company on Wednesday, and they had to let a lot of people know. By the time spring is over, 150 stores total will be closed by Sears Holding — 108 Kmart locations and 42 Sears.

Macy’s will be closing a great number of stores as well, and once all is over, there will be a total of 68 locations shutting its doors. According to the full list revealed by the Boston Globe , there are a lot of locations in California (five), Florida (four), and New York (four) shutting down. Texas (eight) and Pennsylvania (six) even further up there, though, as they lead the pack.
Some Macy’s stores have already closed:
- Laurel Plaza, North Hollywood, CA
- Ala Moan Jewel Gallery, Honolulu, HI
- Valley Fair, West Vallery, UT
As revealed by CNBC, the full amount of 69 Macy’s stores closing will be complete and shut down by the middle of 2017. Over the course of the next few years, at least 32 more Macy’s locations will also be closed or have their leases allowed to expire.
Kmart, Sears, and Macy’s are three huge retailers who are going to be shutting down more than 200 store locations between them. 2017 is not starting off well for those businesses, but perhaps this down-sizing will help them prosper more over time. The full lists for all three retailers are complete at this time, but it isn’t known if more will be added as those begin to shut down. While it may help the companies, those losing locations near them will have to figure out a way to get their fix from those stores.
