WASHINGTON — A large furniture chain announced the closure of all of its locations nationwide earlier this month, including many in Virginia and one in Maryland.
American Freight has already begun closing down its 328 locations and its online warehouse. The closure comes as American Freight's parent company, Franchise Group, Inc., began Chapter 11 proceedings in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware.
Hilco Consumer-Retail, the company handling sales while the business winds down, says shoppers can save up to 30% off the lowest ticket prices storewide on items including living room sets, bedroom furniture, dining tables and a selection of scratch and dent, and new-in-box appliances, such as refrigerators, washers and dryers.
"Our goal is to deliver outstanding value to customers during this full chain closing sale," said Ian Fredericks, CEO of Hilco Consumer-Retail in a press release. "Everything is on sale and must be sold, and we recommend shopping early for the best selection."
All sales will be final and discounts are valid in stores and online at www.americanfreight.com. Select American Freight locations will continue to offer delivery services to customers.
The closures include 11 locations in Virginia and one in Maryland.
