Bon-Ton
Bon-Ton, the online retailer and department store, has been operating for a century, but it is time to say goodbye. In the previous year, the store declared bankruptcy and subsequently liquidated its shops. However, in 2018, it reopened for e-commerce and reopened a few shops. They had a lot of success at first since they operated in tiny communities with little competition. Of course, Amazon altered that.
Claire’s
Claire’s is an accessories shop that first opened its doors in 1961. For a long period, it was the favorite shop of many young American ladies. However, the firm halted its IPO and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2018. It closed more than 130 shops throughout the nation in May of that year.
