These Stores Could Be Closing in Idaho in 2021
Just in Boise Town Square Mall alone, Christopher and Banks and Abercrombie & Fitch closed it s doors for good just a few weeks ago while stores such as Sketchers, Bare Minerals, and Justice all suffered the same fate earlier in 2020. National relators across the board are being forced to close hundreds of their stores permanently. The shopping landscape is changing. While some companies were already struggling to stay a float before the pandemic, others have suffered losses too greatly because of it with consumers choosing to shop online.
Looking ahead, several major realtors have announced a number of stores they expect to close across the nation in 2021. While we don t know if and which Idaho locations will be affected, keep these stores on your radar. This could be the last year to visit some of these stores locally.

(NEW YORK) Victoria’s Secret is planning to close up to 50 stores in the U.S. and Canada this year.
The news comes as the lingerie giant saw a continuing plummet in sales during the coronavirus pandemic and closed over 200 of its stores in 2020.
On a call with analysts last year, Victoria’s Secret CEO Stuart Burgdoerfer said, “What we see is a somewhat smaller but substantially more profitable business with a much better foundation, and then obviously a return to growth which is what all of us are looking for.”
With the closures, the brand’s parent company, L Brands, will eliminate 22% of the company’s 1,091 stores in addition to 1.26 million square feet of real estate.
