Founded in 1969, Yankee Candle says it has a nationwide array of more than 475 company-owned retail stores, as well as a catalog and online business and a North American wholesale customer network that includes more than 19,000 specialty retailers.
Nearly 9,100 store closures were announced last year, some 55 percent more than the number of closures in 2018, according to a report last month from marketing research firm Coresight Research.
Bridgewater Falls lost another store Jan. 19 when Burgerim closed its doors, one of 100 such closures of the chain’s stores nationwide. Officials with the lifestyle center recently told this news outlet they are working to add national brand-name stores to replace vacant space at the center.
