American Freight, a well-known furniture and appliance retailer, is set to close its doors for good, including all ten locations in South Carolina. This announcement comes as part of a larger decision by its parent company, Hilco Consumer-Retail, to shut down all 328 American Freight stores across the United States.
The company recently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in federal court in Delaware, stating that inflation and macroeconomic challenges were major factors in their decision. As a result, all stores, including the one located on Atlas Road in Columbia and others in cities such as Greenville, North Charleston, Rock Hill, and Myrtle Beach, will be closing.
The closing of American Freight stores is occurring now, with sales already underway. The company has begun to offer discounts and is actively liquidating its inventory. Customers can expect to find savings of up to 30% on storewide merchandise.
Customers in South Carolina can visit any of the following locations as they prepare for closure:
According to Hilco Consumer-Retail, the decision to close all American Freight stores was driven by a combination of economic factors impacting sales, particularly inflation. The company aims to provide substantial value to its customers during this liquidation sale, which includes a range of products offered at discounted prices.
Shoppers will find a variety of items available during the closing sale. The store’s inventory includes:
Moreover, the company assures customers that new inventory will continue arriving even as the liquidation sales commence.
“Our goal is to deliver outstanding value to customers during this full chain closing sale,” stated Ian Fredericks, CEO of Hilco Consumer-Retail. “Everything is on sale and must be sold, and we recommend shopping early for the best selection.”
As American Freight prepares to close its doors, shoppers are encouraged to take advantage of the ongoing sales while they can, as the clock ticks down on the retailer’s presence in the state.
