Tuesday Morning closing 230 stores, files bankruptcy

DALLAS, TX - Off-price retailer Tuesday Morning filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection Wednesday with plans to close more than a third of its stores. Tuesday Morning had been struggling when the coronavirus pandemic began and went into a free fall when it was forced to temporarily close its locations due to the crisis.

Tuesday Morning, which sells a wide variety of merchandise including home decor, bath and body goods, crafts, food, and toys, hopes to stay in business while using the bankruptcy process to restructure its operations. The company plans to permanently close about 230 of its 687 stores this summer. Of those, it has already identified 132 that will be shuttered, including 17 in California. "These stores were…
