"15 Big Retailers Closing Down Stores Right Now"
"Here’s a fact that will stop you in your tracks: In the time it takes you to watch this video, two more retail stores will permanently close their doors in America. That's one store closing every 10 minutes during business hours across the country.
Rite Aid - the pharmacy you've probably bought aspirin from a hundred times - just filed for bankruptcy twice and is closing all 1,240 remaining stores. CVS deleted over 1,100 locations since 2022. Joann shut down every single craft store by May. GameStop eliminated 590 stores last year and is closing even more right now. These aren't small mom-and-pop shops. These are billion-dollar corporations with armies of analysts, decades of data, and access to unlimited capital. And they're all making the same calculation: physical retail is dying.
In 2025 alone, an estimated 15,000 stores will close across America - nearly double the 7,325 closures from 2024. When companies this big start abandoning real estate this fast, something fundamental has broken. What you're witnessing is the systematic dismantling of America's retail infrastructure. Let's go through this list now."
