The Bon-Ton Closing 42 Locations.


     Another department store chain is on the brink of extinction, as The Bon-Ton announced this week the closure of 42 stores and talks of filing for bankruptcy. Milwaukee-based Bon-Ton has been fiscally spiraling downward over the years, stock prices plummeting leading the various location closures. This week was the hit analysis' were expecting as 42 locations were announced would close by the spring. Mostly Carson's, Bon-Ton, and Younkers locations, as select Herberger's, Bergner's, and Elder-Beermans locations around the Midwest are also on the chopping block. This is part of a plan to turn around the company, and cutting unnecessary locations primarily located in "dead malls". The liquidation sales have started February 1st and are expected to last 10-12 weeks, leading to the closures by late April, possibly early May 2018.

     Here is the list of the locations announced this week, as well as recently announced locations that are scheduled to close earlier that April. I know The Bon-Ton chain very well, highlighted location are one's I have shopped at and have also been featured on Trip to the Mall. The Carson's store around Chicago that are closing are just clearance centers, and two regular stores are Chicago and Schaumburg. The other Carson's listed are located far from Chicago itself, like Dekalb and Danville.
