Francesca’s Collections
After disappointing foot traffic and well as low sales, women’s clothing chain Francesca’s is closing down around 30 to 40 of its locations in 2019. The company’s CEO has promised “more disruptive window displays and visual effects” in order to try to improve its sales, as well as increase its online presence.
Gymboree
Gymboree has had a difficult year: it officially filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in January and has recently announced that about 800 of Gymboree and Crazy 8 stores will be shut down for good. In the meantime, online sales are still going on, as well as liquidation sales in stores.
