In 2025, Macy’s is moving ahead with a big change in its business plan, which includes shutting down several stores across the country—including multiple locations in Texas. This step is part of Macy’s “Bold New Chapter” strategy, which aims to improve business by focusing on its best-performing stores.
Back in February 2024, Macy’s had announced that it would close 150 underperforming stores by the year 2026. Now, in January 2025, the company confirmed that 66 of these stores will be closing this year, and some of them are already running liquidation sales.
Why Macy’s Is Closing Stores
According to Macy’s, the decision to close stores is not an easy one. However, the company says it is necessary to stay competitive and focus more on locations where customers are already shopping actively. Macy’s also plans to invest in improving 350 of its best stores by the end of the 2026 financial year, which closes on January 30, 2027.
Macy’s CEO Tony Spring shared,
“We know closing stores is difficult, but we want to focus our energy and resources on stores where customers are already happy with the service and products. This will help us grow stronger in the long run.”

What Shoppers Can Expect Next
If you live near any of these stores, you might notice clearance or liquidation sales happening now. These are usually held before final shutdowns and can offer good discounts on various items.
The remaining Macy’s stores across Texas and the U.S. will see more investment in product quality and customer experience, according to the company’s plan.
While Macy’s is closing several stores in Texas, it’s also working to make the rest of its stores even better for customers. Still, it’s sad news for employees and shoppers who regularly visited these outlets.
If you’re someone who shops at Macy’s, this news might affect where you shop in the future. And if you live near any of the closing locations, it might be a good idea to take advantage of the current discounts before the stores shut down.
