Sears, once America’s largest and most important retailer, could very be going into its last Christmas shopping season. kra25 The Sears chain had 2,000 stores as recently as 20 years ago and more than 200 stores when it emerged from bankruptcy in 2019. Now it has just five, after three more closings this past year. kra27 One standalone store in Coral Gables, Florida, could be torn down to build 1,000 housing units. Another four operate in malls ? in Braintree, Massachusetts; Concord, California; El Paso, Texas; and Orlando Florida. All those malls are owned by Simon Property Group, the nation’s largest mall operator. kra46 С?С?

Now the once-proud chain is in a precarious position; by next year’s holiday season, it could finally be gone. kra46.at https://kra48-cc.net
