Macy's is closing 66 stores. Here's where they're located
Macy's CEO said the closures will 'allow us to focus our resources and prioritize investments in our go-forward stores'
Macy’s on Thursday named 66 stores it plans to close this year.
The slew of "non-go-forward" locations that Macy’s said will permanently close are spread across 22 states, including Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and Washington.
The closures stem from the "Bold New Chapter" initiative the retailer has been implementing since last February to "return the company to sustainable, profitable sales growth," according to a press release.

Shuttering about 150 "underproductive" stores by the end of 2026 is one of the measures that Macy’s previously outlined for the initiative.

"Closing any store is never easy, but as part of our Bold New Chapter strategy, we are closing underproductive Macy’s stores to allow us to focus our resources and prioritize investments in our go-forward stores, where customers are already responding positively to better product offerings and elevated service," CEO Tony Spring said in a statement.

Under Macy’s "Bold New Chapter" initiative, the retailer is also making investments in its "go-forward locations" and looking to open more small-format locations. There are a total of 350 "go-forward" stores, the company has said.

Macy’s will "simplify and modernize end-to-end operations," as well as open more Bloomingdale’s and Bluemercury locations, the retailer said in February when it announced the "Bold New Chapter" plan.

Macy’s currently operates nearly 60 Bloomingdale’s-branded locations and 164 Bluemercury-branded stores, according to its website.
During Macy’s earnings call in December, Spring reported that Macy’s "First 50" locations, Bloomingdale’s and Bluemercury "all comped positive" in the third quarter.

"Year-to-date, we have made progress in our Bold New Chapter Strategy and remain on track to achieve our long-term goal of sustainable profitable growth," Spring said last month.
