Sears, Kmart announce more closings
The Sioux Falls Sears store was spared from the most recent list of closings announced by Sears Holdings.
The parent company of Sears and Kmart released a list of 63 stores that will close in January 2018.
The Kmart in Aberdeen, S.D., was the only South Dakota store on the list.
Both Sioux Falls Kmart stores closed in previous rounds of cuts.
“Sears Holdings continues its strategic assessment of the productivity of our Kmart and Sears store base and will continue to right size our store footprint in number and size,” the company said in a statement. “In the process, as previously announced we will continue to close some unprofitable stores as we transform our business model so that our physical store footprint and our digital capabilities match the needs and preferences of our members.”
