These FL Retailers Permanently Closed In 2025

About 2,700 stores nationwide have locked their doors or planned to close in 2025, according to a Business Insider analysis.

Florida retailers, such as Macy's and Kohl's, chose to permanently close the doors on some of its locations.

There are multiple reasons for store closures, but a big one is e-commerce competition. In a report last year, UBS analysts said another 45,000 stores may close by 2029 as retail’s physical footprint increasingly shifts to fulfillment and distribution centers.

Large businesses benefit from their size, which allows them to absorb higher costs and secure more favorable agreements compared to smaller businesses — especially the independent shops that anchor main streets across the country.
