A Whole Foods spokesperson confirmed that the company will be closing six stores nationwide, in Massachusetts, Alabama, California, and Illinois. Whole Foods Market chain has over 530 stores in the United States.
The company was not specific about closing dates, saying the stores will close in the coming months.
“As we continue to position Whole Foods Market for long-term success, we regularly evaluate the performance and growth potential of each of our stores, and we have made the difficult decision to close six stores. We are supporting impacted Team Members through this transition and expect that all interested, eligible Team Members will find positions at our other locations,” a Whole Foods spokesperson said last week.
