(FOX40.COM) — Kohl’s has announced some real estate changes that include closing some stores across the United States by April 2025.
The San Bernardino E-commerce Distribution Center is to close at the end of its lease term in May 2025. According to a statement from Kohl’s, the San Bernadino facility has been working with Kohl’s since 2010, and it is one of their 15 EFCs and distributing centers in Kohl’s supply chain across the country. With the most recent technologies, it has increased its efficiencies at the newer EFC facilities which has expanded the company’s ability to fulfill customer orders from store locations.
This would allow the company to maintain its ability to fulfill orders without the San Bernardino facility, said officials. In Jan. 2025, Kohl’s announced that they have plans to close 27 stores of its more than 1,150 locations.
