Maryland's Last Store Of This Iconic Retailer Is Closing Soon

PRINCE FREDERICK, MD — Maryland's last remaining RadioShack store is closing this weekend, according to multiple reports.

The store, located in Prince Frederick in Calvert County, will close Saturday after more than 40 years of operation, NBC Washington and WTOP reported. The decision to close was made after the store's owner died in January.

Cindy Henning, the store’s manager and sole employee who worked there for three decades, told WTOP she will miss the business "dearly."

“We would have a lot of fun. That was half of our day was to have fun with people and show them how electronics work,” Henning said.

A liquidation sale is currently underway, NBC4 reported.

RadioShack, the iconic chain of consumer electronics stores, went bankrupt in 2017 and was later acquired by El Salvador’s Unicomer Group in May 2023. Founded in 1921, RadioShack had more than 8,000 stores at its peak in 1999.
