Since initially announcing the closures in 2019, Walgreens is currently shutting over 200 of its stores in the United States. The closures will account for less than 3% of the pharmacy chain’s total store count, which currently stands at around 9,600 locations around the world.

The Children’s Place is also closing a number of locations around the world this year. Last year, the children’s clothing retailer announced plans to close 200 stores in 2020 and another 100 by 2021. According to “Today,” the company hasn’t said which stores will close, but it’s mostly looking for “mall-based” sites.
