No matter the store or business, it breaks my heart to hear when one is going out of business. The retail world had been struggling before COVID-19 hit and for many they just couldn t make it through the pandemic. As the world starts to get back to normal and businesses are seeing profits again there are some companies that have deiced to pull the plug on some of their shops. The growling list now includes Footaction which will be closing all of its locations in the coming years. The parent company of Footaction is Foot Locker, Inc. and they announced that they d be closing the majority of their 231 Footaction stores over the next two years as leases on spaces expire. This closing is still happening even though they posted an impressive 82% increase in profits year-over-year. You can read more at msn.com. Click here to find the Footaction nearest you.
