America's retailers and restaurants, some of which once marked the fabric of local communities, are now being forced to shut their doors or shrink their footprints.
Already this year, store closures in the U.S. outnumber openings, something not seen in 2023 or 2022, according to CRE Daily.
This comes after 2023 saw more than 4,000 stores announce closure plans, two times higher than the prior year, according to analysis by the Daily on Retail, an investor-oriented consumer research platform, cited by the National Retail Federation.
FOX Business has a rundown of the domino effect hitting U.S. retailers and casual dining shops.
