At Home Furniture Store to Close 31 U.S. Locations Amid Corporate Restructuring
In a significant move, At Home, the big-box retailer renowned for its home furnishings, has announced the closure of 31 locations across the United States, including three stores in New Jersey. This decision follows the company’s filing for bankruptcy in June, driven by a corporate restructuring strategy aimed at reducing $2 billion in debt while securing $200 million in new capital.
Reasons Behind the Closures
The closures are indicative of broader challenges within the retail market, exacerbated by rising tariffs affecting consumer spending. At Home is not alone in this situation; several other retailers have also filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy recently. Notable cases include Big Lots, which filed last year, along with Rite Aid, Forever 21, and Joann, all seeking protection this year under similar market pressures.
