Bed Bath & Beyond lists Charlotte store among looming closures

Bed Bath & Beyond is closing about 150 stores, including at least one in Charlotte.

CHARLOTTE — At least one local store will be shuttered as big-box retailer Bed Bath & Beyond trims its footprint.

The store at 3413 Pineville-Matthews Road, in The Arboretum shopping center in Charlotte, was on a list released yesterday of dozens of locations the company has chosen to close.

That’s the only location in the Carolinas on the list so far — but more will be added as Bed Bath & Beyond analyzes the performance of its stores nationwide.

The retailer last month said it would close 150 of its namesake stores as part of a plan to stabilize its financial situation.

It’s also reducing its corporate and supply-chain staff by about 20%.

It presently has 34 Bed Bath & Beyond locations across North Carolina and South Carolina, including several in the greater Charlotte area.
