Pier 1 Will Permanently Shut Down All Store Locations in Canada and the U.S.
By Ambia Staley
May 20, 2020Just 3 months after filing for bankruptcy protection, home goods retailer Pier 1 announced plans to permanently close and shutter all 540 store locations across Canada and the United States.
The news might not be a surprise to many Canadians, as the chain already announced plans to shutter all store locations in Canada back in February, however the company announced late Tuesday that efforts have failed to find a buyer and they will be forced to shut down entirely.
In a statement on Pier 1's U.S. site, the company states that it will begin a wind down of operations once stores are able to reopen. The Company expects to continue serving stores through early fall 2020, however store locations, including those in Canada, could close earlier.
