SAN DIEGO COUNTY, CA — The discount home goods retailer Tuesday Morning Corp., which has 37 stores in California, could close some of them after filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection earlier this month.

Dallas-based Tuesday Morning will close 263 stores located in “low-traffic regions,” the company said in a statement. In California, there are 31 Tuesday Morning stores listed as closing soon. There are five San Diego County stores included on the closure list:

  • San Diego: 1772 Garnet Avenue, Pacific Plaza, San Diego, CA 92109
  • Carlsbad: 1824 Marron Road, North Country Plaza, Carlsbad, CA 92008
  • San Diego: 3338 Governor Drive, UC Marketplace, San Diego, CA 92122
  • San Diego: 4242 Camino Del Rio North, Valley Del Rio Shopping Center, San Diego, CA 92108
  • El Cajon: 2983 Jamacha Road, Rancho San Diego Towne Center, El Cajon, CA 92019

In the Feb. 14 bankruptcy filing, Chief Executive Andrew Berger cited “exceedingly burdensome debt.” In a statement, Tuesday Morning said it had secured a $51.5 million debtor-in-possession commitment from Invictus Global Management to support operations during the bankruptcy proceedings.

“We have determined that the best path to reorganizing and transforming the company begins with a Chapter 11 filing,” Berger said in a statement. “Fortunately, we have the support of a committed capital provider in Invictus and a clear vision for transforming into a focused retailer that serves its core, heritage markets in a profitable manner.”

The company said the “targeted approach to winding down unprofitable and underperforming stores will position Tuesday Morning to emerge from bankruptcy with a profitable, cash-generating store fleet that serves its most engaged and loyal customers.”
