Buffalo, N.Y. (WBEN) - The Made in America Store is shutting down its last remaining location at 1000 West Maple Court in Elma, with plans to reopen at a new location some time in the future. In a Facebook post, the store's owners said "This is not a goodbye, but rather a strategic restructuring that allows us to thoughtfully plan for the future." The store is entering a liquidation phase. Details about sales, outstanding gift cards and more will be announced soon.

In a new interview with Sports Business Journal, Sabres COO and Bills President of Business Operations Pete Guelli says the Sabres are "talking to everybody in the public sector" regarding future renovations to KeyBank Center. In the interview Guelli also said he wants to increase events at the arena from 140 to 200 per year. As for the Bills, they're in the early stages of planning what to do at the site of the former Highmark Stadium after it's demolished some time within the next year.

Rich Products has purchased Great Kitchens Food Company, which is the largest manufacturer of take & bake pizzas in North America. Great Kitchens also makes UNO frozen pizzas. The acquisition adds 1,000 employees to Rich's workforce.
