News 12 WXII, an NBC affiliate, has reported that the Sears store located in Friendly Center, Greensboro, North Carolina, will be closing. This closure marks the end of 51 years of business for the last remaining Sears shop in the state.
The store is expected to close by the end of this month. According to WXII 12 News, an employee mentioned that the store is currently conducting its final sales, offering discounts of up to 70 percent on inventory.
CBL Properties, which owns the Friendly Center, told the outlet that the closure “is the first step of an active redevelopment plan.”.
The company stated, “Once arrangements are completed, we will be thrilled to disclose more precise information.”

The last remaining Sears store in Fort Collins, Colorado is similar to the one in Pennsylvania. After 50 years, the Coloradoan shop is closing up, located in the Home Appliances department of Sears in Fort Collins, Colorado.

The Acadiana Advocate stated that signs indicating the shutdown were displayed in the store windows, akin to the other establishments. Completing the roster of closures is the Sears Home & Life store in Lafayette, Louisiana.
As reported by the Acadiana Advocate, this particular store was recently established in 2019, as one of three operating under the Home & Life franchise. However, it stands as the final remaining Sears establishment within Louisiana.
According to Google, the second store in Overland Park, Kansas, continues to operate, whereas one Home & Life establishment in Anchorage, Alaska, has already shut down. However, as stated by the Acadiana Advocate, the Kansas store is also scheduled for closure.
