Illinois business closings

Once again, rising prices and changing customer spending habits are being blamed for yet another company with locations from coast-to-coast deciding to close hundreds of stores. Here's what that means for Illinois.

There are lots of reasons behind the planned closures of 1,200 pharmacies across the nation, but all the major drugstore chains in the country are going through a period of closing stores to keep the entire chain afloat under adverse circumstances. How many will be closing in Illinois? That question remains unanswered right now.

The seafood lover in you may cringe at the news that this major seafood chain is having more difficulties than they'd planned on, but it's true. A new ruling may force a lot more closures than were initially announced a month or so back.
