Disney Raleigh Closing May 19 2021

Disney Permanently Closing Its Store at Raleigh on May 19th

In the continuation of many of its store closings across the nation, Disney is about to close a store permanently at Raleigh by May 19th.



The Disney Store in Raleigh's Crabtree Valley Mall is set to close permanently on May 19, 2021, as per the announcement on their official website. On May 4th, an employee at that location reported the story, saying that no new stores will be opening at Raleigh Disney.

Any Item in the store is 25% OFF as of May 4th, but the staff is unsure of the upcoming markdown timetable as the deadline looms.

"Disney store in Raleigh closing for good by May 19. Back in March, WRAL TechWire shared that Disney would be "closing at least 60 stores in North America, amounting to about 35% of its locations in the region." At this time, the store in Charlotte is not closing." [1]

More than a Dozen Disney Stores will be Closed

The first round of store closures comes just a week after the Walt Disney Company revealed that at least 60 Disney stores in North America would shutter this year. The company's store locator tool has been revised to mark stores that will close "on or around," This round would result in the closure of at least 38 stores in the United States.

To Concentrate On Its E-Commerce Operation

The company stated that it was reducing the number of stores in order to concentrate on its e-commerce operation. The 60 store closures represent about one-third of all stores in North America.

Victoria's Secret, Best Buy, Bath and Beyond, Macy's, and J.C. Penney have announced the closure of shops in 2021. Christopher & Banks, an apparel chain, declared the closure of all of its stores after applying for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

9 Stores in California and 7 Stores in Texas

Disney stores are closing in 16 states, with California losing the most, with nine stores closing, and Texas losing seven.

"While market preference has turned toward online shopping, the global pandemic has changed what shoppers demand from a retailer," said Stephanie Young, president of consumer electronics, gaming, and publishing.

More than 600 Disney Parks outlets and other sites, including small Disney stores within Target stores, will not be affected by the closures.

"Over the last few years, we've concentrated on reaching customers where they already spend their time, such as the global extension of Disney store shop-in-shops, "Young said. "

Disney officials did not include an official list of the store openings, instead directing USA TODAY to use the store locator app on the company's website to locate the closing locations.
