Attention shoppers: Century 21 is coming back.
The New York-based discount retail chain that built a loyal following but folded after declaring bankruptcy in September, announced its planned return last week.
In a statement on Tuesday, Century 21 Stores said the decision to relaunch came “in response to the outpouring of love from the Big Apple and the admiration” of their “loyal shoppers from around the world.”
The announcement was light on details, but the company said it would open its first store in South Korea this year. News about its New York and nationwide relaunch will follow in the coming weeks, the statement said.
