""We continuously evaluate the performance of our stores, and occasionally, after long and careful deliberation, it becomes necessary to make the difficult decision to close certain locations," Albertsons said in a statement to USA Today. "We are working to place affected associates in nearby stores wherever possible.""
"Retail closures continue to be a growing trend. Fast Company has been following what many have branded as the retail apocalypse nationwide, which has impacted retailers like At Home, Claire's, and Rite Aid."
Safeway, a subsidiary of Albertsons Companies, currently operates over 900 stores across the United States and plans to close 12 locations on or before November 7. Ten of the closures are in Colorado, with one store closing in Nebraska and one in New Mexico. Albertsons attributes the closures to store performance and states that the company is working to place affected associates in nearby stores wherever possible. The closures reflect a broader retail trend of increasing store shutdowns, with other retailers like At Home, Claire's, and Rite Aid also impacted amid what many call a retail apocalypse.
