Forever 21 Files For Bankruptcy (Chapter 11)

Recommended Posts

Forever 21 said the restructuring will allow it to focus on the profitable core part of its operations and shut some international locations. 

 

“We have requested approval to close up to 178 stores across the U.S. The decisions as to which domestic stores will be closing are ongoing, pending the outcome of continued conversations with landlords,” the company said in an email statement. 

Founded in 1984, the retailer said it has 815 stores in 57 countries. 

The company plans to close most of its stores in Asia and Europe. However, it does not expect to exit any major markets in the United States. 

 

Last week, Forever 21 had said it would exit Japan and close all 14 stores at the end of October. 

The company also said its Canadian subsidiary filed for bankruptcy and it plans to wind down the business, closing 44 stores in the country. 

Forever 21 will continue operations in Mexico and Latin America.
