At the end of August, Bed Bath & Beyond announced it would be closing 150 stores and laying off 20% of staff.
Bed Bath & Beyond currently has 20 locations in Massachusetts and eight in New Hampshire, according to its website.
"The Company has identified and commenced the closure of approximately 150 lower-producing Bed Bath & Beyond banner stores," Bed Bath & Beyond stated in a news release. The list available on the website names 56 stores slated for closure.
The company said last month that sales are down 26% for the second quarter of the fiscal 2022 year compared to 2021.
Earlier this year, Bed Bath & Beyond was accused of turning off AC in stores to save money as sales plummeted. Bed Bath & Beyond told CNN that any changes in store temperature guidelines did not come from corporate.
