Haggen Plans To Close California Stores
BELLINGHAM, Wash. (CBSLA.com) — Haggen stores, which expanded rapidly into California and neighboring states less than a year ago, announced Thursday that it would close stores as part of plan to focus on its core operations on the Pacific Northwest.
The company said as part of its plan to "right-size," it would close stores in California, Arizona and Nevada as part of a bankruptcy process announced Sept. 9.
Haggen said employees would receive 60 days of notice of pending closings of stores and offices in the Pacific Southwest.
"Haggen plans to continue to build its brand in partnership with its dedicated corporate support and store teams. Haggen has a long record of success in the Pacific Northwest and these identified stores will have the best prospect for ongoing excellence," said John Clougher, Chief Executive Officer of Haggen Pacific Northwest, said in a statement on the company's website. "Although this has been a difficult process and experience, we will remain concentrated in the Pacific Northwest where we began, focusing on fresh Northwest products and continuing our support and involvement in the communities we serve."
