Recently JOANN announced that it will be closing all of its stores. JOANN is a Hudson, Ohio based chain craft store known for its fabrics, sewing and knitting supplies.
According to their website, they have opened around 850 stores in 49 states.
On February 12, 2025, the store made an announcement that it would be closing roughly 500 stores across the nation in an effort to “right-size” the footprint of the company.
Fast forward to yesterday, February 24, 2025 when the store made another announcement- that the remaining stores open will be liquidated due to failure to find a new store buyer.
According to their customer FAQ, “JOANN leadership, our Board, advisors and legal partners made every possible effort to pursue a more favorable outcome that would keep the company in business.” they stated.
For those wondering when the stores will officially go out of business, here is JOANN’s response:
“Subject to Bankruptcy Court approval of the transaction, the winning bidders plan to begin winding down the Company’s operations and conduct going-out-of-business sales at all locations.” They expect to continue or start going out of business immediately.
