Major Retail Store Closing In Wethersfield

WETHERSFIELD, CT — It appears more Connecticut-based Bed, Bath & Beyond stores are closing, with someone at the Wethersfield store Monday confirming that store's imminent shuttering.

A representative answering the phone at the Wethersfield Bed, Bath & Beyond confirmed that store's upcoming closure, though no further details were available as to when that was happening.

The person said, currently, there is a 20 percent sale on all items in the store, which is located at 1065 Silas Deane Highway.

Late last week, CBS News reported a securities filing indicated the company had defaulted on loans, and was considering restructuring its debt in bankruptcy court.

The well-known retailer specializes in bathrooms, kitchens and home decor, among other retail offerings, though it appears that list is growing and could grow in upcoming days.

Southington and Enfield stores, for example, are also tagged for shuttering.

Reportedly, sales have been plummeting and company officials have openly reported concerns about the company staying in business.
