By February of 2020, the parent company that owns Sears and Kmart will close 96 stores across the country, and several of them are in California.
In all, 28 Sears and Kmart locations are scheduled to close in the state, according to a press release.
"We will endeavor to create and deliver value through a strategic combination of our better performing retail stores and our service businesses, brands and other assets, and expect to realize a significant return on our extensive portfolio of owned and leased real estate," the press release said.
When Transformco (the parent company of Sears and Kmart) owner Eddie Lampert acquired Sears Holdings for $5.2 billion in 2019, there were 425 Sears and Kmart locations in operation.
