As the editor of Trip to the Mall I have been rather absent with content the last few months. I have not been going to any new malls or documenting much new content. With massive store closing sales including Toys R Us, The Bon-Ton and Sears, my best efforts to documenting these closures have been only frequenting my local area as best as I can. Several unforeseen circumstances have caused the future of Trip to the Mall to be sparing to new malls and destinations as I no longer have adequate time or funds to explore retail as I would like to as of right now. I am an only child to a very small family, who as any family may fight at times, disagree and argue, but love each other very much, and make an effort to spend as much time with each other as possible.<br />
<br />
The passing of my Father in January brought on the limitation of traveling and mall walking. Checking out new chain stores, and enjoying first time meals at new fast food chains. My local area mall is loosing its Sears and Carson Pirie Scott and Toys R Us in the adjacent lot has just closed. For the past 16 years, I have made peace with calling my community home, and watching it grow so much, and seeing so much change...for the good and the bad. Seeing so many stores close and new ones open, different chains come and go, and spending a lot of time with my Father at these places. Although he is gone, the stores are still here. However, time goes on and now the mall he took me to as a young child and shortly before his passing, us walking around together joking about Sears and laughing with the clerks at the Carson's cologne counter, time has come for the stores to leave too. The memories will never fade away, My Father will always be in my heart, and my once favorite places to shop will only exist in photographs.<br />
<br />
It has been a difficult past few months but some good will surely come out of it. Life will bring on new challenges and difficulties, but as my Father proved to me, never stop trying, always push through and never give up. As I was 20 years old when my Father died, listening to a song from the band Green day causes me to shed a different kind of tear now, the song "Wake Me Up When September Ends" has a lyric that is all too relatable..."Like my Fathers come to pass, twenty years as gone so fast". Time really flies, and 20 years has definitely gone by fast. Thank you for reading my friendly fellow retail lovers, surely some new and different malls can be seen shortly.Trip To The Mallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11353578745151225482noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8733023008820151547.post-37243206553132234352018-05-20T15:07:00.002-07:002018-05-20T15:07:34.638-07:00The Bon-Ton Closing All Stores...Goodbye Another Great American Department Store Chain.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Shopping malls across America becoming vacant and becoming more empty with numerous chains closing up more and more frequently. Not exactly overlooked but not given equal attention are the several thousand shopping plazas and strip malls strewn throughout each and every town and city. Starting out strong at first, with purpose, so many stores, each suiting individual needs but all serving the same purpose, are just empty storefronts now. An example made of this property pandemic is the High Point Centre in Lombard, Illinois. Built in 1992 with Cub Foods, Possibly Kids R Us (Babies R Us), Odd Lots (Big Lots), Office Depot, and several small tenants in out parcels including Hollywood Video and Burger Kings. Telling by these photos, the age of the vehicles and the stores, these had to be taken around 2004-2005. Cub Foods would have closed around 2006 and Ultra Foods opened in its place. So much has changed over a decade at this shopping center, it currently being so vacant and parts of it being demolished. I have memories of shopping at these stores and eating around this area with my parents and a very young kid. Although the memories are in my head from then, but to now connect those thoughts to actual photos to really see what the area looked like way back then long before I took an interest in retail preservation.<br />

To see the Cub Foods sign, a Lincoln-Mercury dealership, and the old Burger King logo on this location really is something. This has to be 2004-2005, no later than 2006 for sure. <br />

For the past few years, Deerbrook Mall along Waukegan Road in Deerfield, IL has seen some outstanding changes in development and tenants. The mall itself has since been demolished and a new Jewel-Osco has opened in place of the old Jewel store. Many tenants have closed and new stores added. A Hobby Lobby and Michigan-based Art Van Furniture was most recently added.</div>

Another grocery chain tugging at the reins in this complicated time of retail. Farm Fresh located within the Virginia Beach, Virginia area is selling 21 of its 38 locations to several other competitors including Harris Teeter, Food Lion and Kroger. Minneapolis-based Supervalu who owns Farm Fresh as well as several other regional grocery chains across the country had announced it will be closing and selling most of there locations to other groceries in the area.<br />

The upscale open air shopping mall, Oakbrook Center certainly has seen some changes in the last few years. It has been far too long since an update on the current renovations of the former Sears anchor...more of a reason to document the current progress at the mall. Much of the former Sears has been demolished and the new structure is being constructed to form a new kids entertainment venue called Kidzania and future shopping choices...as well as what will be the new downsized Sears store opening this fall. I will not go into detail about Sears returning to Oakbrook Mall...if they do, the store wont last long...I imagine the lease will be sold off before the store is even built so another tenant can immediately be added to the new construction.</div>

The last of an over century old textile supplier is about to be a thing of the past. Bachrach has announced it will shut down the last remaining locations after years of closures and decline.<br />
<br />
Here are the last remaining Bachrach stores currently open for now. Founded in 1877 in Decatur, Illinois, operating 79 stores at its peak, are down to just 14 locations throughout the Midwest and Northeast. Despite high quality customer service and superior merchandise, that doesn't hold a candle to the comfort of your own desk to shop online.<br />
<br />
Pulled from the companies website, here are the remaining locations in the country.<br />

The teen apparel retailer Abercrombie & Fitch has announced it will be closing 60 stores this year. With malls crumbling and shopping trend shifting to online with no looking back, cuts have to be made however to remain profitable. Abercrombie also owns another clothing chain, Hollister, that sells close to the same exact clothing. Locations destined for closure are likely leases that are up for renewal in shopping centers and malls with high vacancy rates, where naturally the stores would be less profitable.<br />

Best Buy has announced it will be closing all 250 of its mobile stores, commonly found in shopping malls. According to Best Buy CEO Hubert Joly, and quoting <a href="http://fortune.com/2018/03/01/best-buy-stores-results/" target="_blank">Fortune Magazine.</a>..<br />
<br />
"The mall-based mobile stores, at 1,400 square-feet only 3% the size of a
regular Best Buy, were opened a decade ago well before the smartphone
boom ushered in by Apple’s iPhone and when margins were higher. But no
more."<br />
<br />
“Fast forward to 2018 and the mobile phone business has matured,
margins have compressed and the cost of operations in our mobile
standalone stores is higher than in our big box stores,” Joly said in
the letter.<br />
<br />
Best buy should be doing very well considering the demise of HHGregg and Radioshack for electronics and appliance sales and decline at Sears for Whirepool and electronic sales. Although many mobile carriers sell all the latest phones and plans, Best Buy having another set of stores to focus solely on mobile devices and services, doesn't make sense considering the exact same products and services can be found at the conventional Best Buy location. Having small format stores in the mall was the thought of being convenient to shoppers, well now the only convenience in retail is to purchase what you want online, so to remain competitive in today's market, this decision is definitely the right move for Best Buy.<br />

The children's mystical fixtures and furniture division of Crate & Barrel is closing up shop, but not so fast. Crate & Barrel have closed nearly all of The Land Of Nod locations last year, but will consolidate the remaining locations and incorporate the theme within current Crate & Barrel locations, according to the <a href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-biz-land-of-nod-to-be-sold-at-crate-and-barrel-20180220-story.html" target="_blank">Chicago Tribune</a>. The new Crate & Kids department in Crate & Barrel will sell a lot of the same merchandise, but most it will be available online. Locations in Chicago, Oak Brook, and an outlet in Naperville have closed already.<br />
<br />
The Land of Nod was formerly based in Morton Grove, IL and Crate & Barrel is currently based in Northbrook, IL.<br />

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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

If you want to remain a Toys R Us kid, its time to grow up as the company announced today which stores are closing. As part of the companies bankruptcy restructuring, Toys R Us announced the closure of 182 stores today, and more likely over the year as stated previously, the closure of at least 200 stores this year. Liquidation sales will begin in February and all effected stores will close by late April. <br />

Wal-Mart has closed stores before in the past, no doubt about that, as well as Sam's Club locations, just a few each year though. Sam's Club has never closed this many stores at once and in the most absurd way possible. Yesterday, customers ready to shop and employee's going to there job were greeted by security guards and police at 63 Club locations across the U.S. to find out the store was closed for the day. Most have reopened today for regular business, but yesterday they closed to change there computer system and take down and deals and sale prices.<br />
<br />
These closures came as an announcement directly after Wal-Mart agreed to increase the minimum wage to $11. This is what happens, the employees want to be paid more, the company can't operate more stores because the overall cost will decrease overall profit, everyone wanted to be paid more, but with the increase, Wal-Mart has to cut a percentage of employee's to keep profit's on record.<br />
<br />

Macy's has started off the new year on a bad foot announcing the closure of 11 stores last week. These closures are on top of another 19 stores that will be announced later this year as the leases will expire, according to <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/macys-stores-closing-list-2018-1" target="_blank">Business Insider</a>. Closing sales began January 8th and will last 12 weeks, so the locations listed below will close by the end of April.<br />
<br />
Here are the 11 locations that will be closing so far this year:<br />
<br />

<br />
The start of a new years usually means resolutions are set, closing more stores was Eddie Lapert's as Sears Holdings started the year off strong. Late last week, Sears Holdings announced the closure of 103 stores, much more substantial than any closing announcement in the last several years. The closures are broken down to 64 Kmart stores and 39 Sears stores. The liquidations sales began on January 4th with a twelve week sales process leading to most stores closing by the end of April. According to <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/sears-closing-stores-list-2018-1" target="_blank">Business Insider</a>, Sears Holdings will be left with about 940 stores, down from over 3,500 about six years ago. After these closures, there will be about 400 Kmarts left in the country.<br />
<br />
The effort put into closing stores is based on them being profitable or not, well by now, no Sears of Kmart is profitable, as investors applaud Lambert for closing "unprofitable" stores, quarterly earnings...sales in general have yet to recover.<br />

<br />
The start of a new year, and already reflecting on it. Last year was rough with retail as stores close, that's nothing new. What is done to keep it from happening and also to continue happening is not yet explained. On a regular day, I can take a walk through my mall of choice and somehow sense people aren't shopping with a purpose. As the internet craze has consumed our shopping habits, the only way to purchase something now is knowing it will come in a box with a smile on it. As American consumers, we shop all year, the day after Thanksgiving known as Black Friday is the kick off to the biggest shopping season of the year. Between that Friday and Christmas Eve, the stores and malls are packed, and online orders are backed up, we love to spend money and fill our lives with property and tangible goods. Leading up to Christmas, all the stores are closed, the shopping seasons has ended, although the day after Christmas, the stores and malls are packed again, as if a switch was flipped on. Although we flood the return desks, and exchange what we received for what we actually want. I notice even a week after Christmas, everyone has bags in there hands walking through the wings or the mall, I wonder "didn't you get enough for Christmas", we want so much, and the market is in our favor, as consumers, we have reached the highest shopping levels in years. This leaves me with one question...why are the stores still closing?<br />
<br />
<br />
A chain of stores can go out of business, physically, and still profit very well with online. Many have done it in the past, originally catalog stores like Service Merchandise and Montgomery Ward. The physical stores closed, but the company lead on with there online presence. Circuit City and CompUSA also have done it. Retail companies know very well that online dominates over brick-and-mortar, but change the layout of the store to accommodate the transition of shopping habits. Downsizing is the most common change, square footage of stores shrink, and fill shelves with the most commonly sold items. An employee can recommend to a customer if they don't stock something there looking for, to order it online for them to pick up in the store, the company is still making money, just in different ways. Why waist space on products that don't commonly sell, stock only what people need, a niche item is still offered, but not in quantities that justify shelf space in the physical store. Downsizing keeps a chains profits in the green as less overhead expenses such as square footage, total number of employee's, and assets like amounts of equipment. The warehouses remain the same as there still stocked with all the products, and they can ship it from the warehouse directly to your doorstep and not even make you wait for the stores to receive new inventory as there not going to ship on short in a truck just because you order it!<br />
<br />
Relevant to store downsizing, some space is being repurposed for online pick up and drop-off. I am not sure if a term has been coined for what Kohl's and Amazon are doing, customers can now pick-up there Amazon orders and Kohl's orders in a designated space in select Kohl's locations. Whole Foods as well as several malls have a bank of Amazon boxes you can rent with your Amazon account for orders to be delivered and received there. Nordstrom is doing the same with online pick-up as there is a designated space constructed in a portion of the shoe department. Several other chains are doing very similar acts to transition to a variety of selling methods, one biggest factor is to keeping people coming in. The Amazon boxes are in the main entrance of the mall, so if you have to walk into the mall to pick up your orders, likely you will continue into the mall for something...food, a drink, anything, the power of Amazon is being used to keep the"out dated" way of shopping relevant by being incorporating into there business somehow. The Amazon boxes are placed in the dining area of Whole Foods, so supposedly when you pick up you orders, your going to be enticed to getting lunch or dinner, or do your grocery shopping, since after all, your already in the store.<br />
<br />
A lot of empty square footage of some malls is being revamped into bigger and better food courts, although being called food pavilion or dining centers. When you don't always need to buy shoes or cloths, you still need to eat, and so many more choices are being offered now to keep people coming for lunch or dinner. Also to keep shoppers in longer, as there is food provided in the mall, that keeps shoppers from leaving for lunch or dinner, thus keeping them in the mall to shop longer. Better lounge areas are being set up and charging stations for people to rest and charge there devices. To the average shopper, these are just pleasantries, but to the analysis, there fighting tactics to keep you coming back. If there is no where to sit and no where to eat, and you don't need to buy cloths because you bought it online, what purpose do you have being in the mall.<br />
<br />
As stores continue to close and trends shift to online, other methods of receiving goods and services will soon be prime. The only walls a company will need are the warehouse walls as no physical stores will be needed, or at least satellite stores for order pick up and returns. It is indeed an changing world, for the worst in my opinion, but I guess I am just an old soul, born in the wrong time. Only time will tell of the future of retail shopping, at this rate, its won't take much time at all.<br />

A rather unique chain of stores around the Chicago and Milwaukee area sell a rather large amount of "borrowed" products. Home Owners Bargain Outlet, known as HOBO is a home improvement and housewares store, selling a lot of overstock products from other chains. All these products were found on a visit to one Hobo on a single day, it amazed me just where some of this stuff came from.<br />
