NEW YORK - Bed Bath & Beyond has announced which stores it will close in a cost-cutting move to try and turn around its beleaguered business.
Last month, the home goods retailer based in Union, New Jersey, said it would close about 150 of its namesake stores and slash its workforce by 20%. It estimated those cuts would save $250 million in the company's current fiscal year.
Mired in a prolonged sales slump, the company also announced that it would revert to its original strategy of focusing on national brands, instead of pushing its own store labels. That reverses a strategy embraced by its former CEO Mark Tritton, who was ousted in June after less than three years at the helm. It said it would get rid of one-third of its store brands, which had started to be rolled out in the last year or so.
As of May, the retailer operated a total of 955 stores, including 769 Bed Bath & Beyond stores, 135 buybuy Baby stores and 51 stores under the names Harmon, Harmon Face Values or Face Values. As of February, it had roughly 32,000 employees.
Time is of the essence for the company heading into the critical holiday shopping season.
Thursday, the company released a list of 56 stores it plans to close. They span across the U.S., from Washington to Arizona to Florida and up to Massachusetts.

It was not immediately clear how soon the stores would be shuttered, or how many employees would be let go as a result.
Separately, the company is still dealing with the death of its chief financial officer. Gustavo Arnal fell to his death from a Manhattan building in an apparent suicide two weeks ago.
Arnal joined Bed, Bath & Beyond in May 2020 and previously worked for Avon cosmetics company, Walgreens Boot Alliance, and Proctor & Gamble. He was among the defendants named in a class-action suit that claims that he was among a group of stock traders who artificially inflated Bed Bath & Beyond's stock in what is called a 'pump and dump' scheme.
Arnal had recently sold more than 50,000 shares when the stock was in the upper $30s a share. A short time later it plunged to less than $10.
Bed Bath & Beyond's stock is down about 65% in the last 12 months.
