A Kohl’s store in Plainfield has been targeted to close by April, the Wisconsin-based retailer announced.
The store is among 27 in 15 states that will cease operations. A Kohl’s store at Spring Hill Mall is the only other one in Illinois on the list.
The Plainfield store is located at 11860 S. Route 59.
“While Kohl’s continues to believe in the health and strength of its profitable store base, these specific locations were underperforming stores,” the company said in its announcement Thursday.
Employees have been informed and offered a severance package or the ability to apply to other open roles at Kohl’s, the company said.
More than 1,100 other Kohl’s stores are unaffected.
“As we continue to build on our long-term growth strategy, it is important that we also take difficult but necessary actions to support the health and future of our business for our customers and our teams,” CEO Tom Kingsbury said in the announcement.
Spring Hill Mall straddles the West Dundee and Carpentersville border. Although the Kohl’s store has a West Dundee address, it’s actually in Carpentersville.
