Big Lots is set to close all of its remaining 963 stores following the collapse of a potential sale aimed at rescuing the struggling retailer. In September, the company had entered into an agreement to sell "substantially all" of its assets to Nexus Capital Management. However, the deal ultimately fell through, leading to the decision to liquidate.
In a statement released on Thursday, Big Lots confirmed the unfortunate news, indicating that the company would soon initiate “going out of business” sales across its locations. The closures mark a significant downturn for the retail chain, which has faced ongoing financial difficulties exacerbated by changing consumer habits and increased competition in the market.
Employees and customers alike are now bracing for the impact of the closures, as the company prepares to wind down operations. The liquidation process is expected to unfold in the coming weeks, with discounts on merchandise as the stores aim to clear out inventory before shutting their doors for good.
