"As part of the comprehensive turnaround plan we announced in November, we are taking the next steps
in our efforts to move forward with a more productive store footprint," said Bill Tracy, president and chief
executive officer for The Bon-Ton Stores. "Including other recently announced store closures, we expect
to close a total of 47 stores in early 2018. We remain focused on executing our key initiatives to drive
improved performance in an effort to strengthen our capital structure to support the business going
forward."
The stores are the latest in a long list of retailers that are shuttering amid competition from online retailers like Amazon.
