American Eagle Outfitters will close its Devens distribution center, laying off 103 workers beginning April 12.
German online fashion retailer Zalando said Thursday it would close a distribution centre in the eastern city of Erfurt with 2,700 employees to restructure its European logistics network. The centre, which accounts for nearly one-sixth of Zalando's workforce, will cease operations by the end of September, the company said in a statement. "We have made the difficult but necessary decision to close our fulfilment centre in Erfurt," Zalando said, using a term for a site where online orders are processed, packed and shipped.
