Kohl\u2019s<\/span><\/span> plans to close 27 underperforming stores across multiple states by April to improve profitability. The closures affect a small portion of its 1,150+ locations, and the company says its overall business remains strong.<\/p>\n

The move comes as CEO Tom Kingsbury<\/span><\/span> prepares to step down, with Ashley Buchanan<\/span><\/span> (currently leading Michaels<\/span><\/span>) set to take over. Kingsbury will stay on briefly as an advisor.<\/p>\n

Founded in 1962, Kohl\u2019s is one of the largest U.S. department store chains, offering clothing, home goods, and brands like Nike<\/span><\/span> and Levi\u2019s<\/span><\/span>, along with partnerships like Sephora<\/span><\/span> shop-in-stores.<\/p>\n

Like many retailers, Kohl\u2019s faces challenges from changing shopping habits and e-commerce competition. Sales have declined, and its stock has dropped about 40% in six months. Despite past pressure from investors, the company is focusing on internal improvements rather than selling.<\/p>\n

Overall, the closures are part of a broader strategy to streamline operations and adapt to a changing retail market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
