Sears in West Hartford to Close

The Sears store, as well as the Sears Auto Center, in Corbin’s Corner in West Hartford will be closing in January, according to Sears Holdings. 

Sears Auto Center will close in early January, while the Sears store will close in late January. 

The liquidation sale will begin on Nov. 11. 

Following is a full statement from Sears Holding: 

“The Sears store, including the Sears Auto Center, in West Hartford was recently sold to Seritage Growth Partners as part of the agreement in which Sears Holdings leases the store from the Seritage. Under this agreement, Seritage contractually has the right to recapture the space occupied by the store and Sears Auto Center locations. Seritage informed us that they will be exercising that right. Hence, the Sears Auto Center will close in early January 2017 and the store will close in late January 2017. Until then, the store itself will continue to remain open and we will continue to serve our customers and members. The store will begin its liquidation sale on November 11. The number of associates is not publicly available. Those associates that are eligible will receive severance and have the opportunity to apply for open positions at area Sears or Kmart stores.”
