Bed Bath & Beyond announced this week they would be closing 150 low-performing stores, which represent about 20% of their locations.

There’s no word yet if the Columbus Park Crossing branch will become one of the 150 — but if the location on Whittlesey Blvd. closes, the nearest Bed Bath & Beyond will be in Opelika.

In a presentation to stockholders Wednesday, the company reported it had already started closing locations and reducing their workforce.

Bed Bath & Beyond will also change what you find on their shelves.

The presentation mentioned offering more popular brands like Calphalon and KitchenAid, while dumping three of its nine store brands: Haven, Wild Sage and Studio 3B. The brand products run the gamut from bath towels to home decor.

Sue Gove, Director and Interim Chief Executive Officer said, “We are working swiftly and diligently to strengthen our liquidity and secure our path for the future.”

According to Footwearnews.com, Bed Bath & Beyond has closed at least 37 U.S. locations across 19 states.
