Several locations of a popular retail chain are closing around Ohio in an effort to address financial struggles.

National big box chain Big Lots, known for giving customers the opportunity to shop for discount home goods, is seemingly closing nearly 300 of its 1,389 stores around the country weeks after initially revealing plans to only close around 40 locations amid the company's financial struggles. Big Lots reported a $114.5 million sales decrease from the first quarter of 2023 to the first of 2024 and has seen a 84% drop in stock over the past year.

In an effort to address financial issues and stave off bankruptcy, the company appears to be shuttering hundreds of stores around the U.S. While states like California are seeing dozens of stores closing, only a handful in Ohio are affected.

Of the 102 Big Lots locations in the Buckeye State, six are set to close down, according to the company's website, which features a banner announcing the select location's closure alongside notice of a sale. Here are all the Ohio Big Lots stores set to shut down:

  • 11372 Princeton Pike, Cincinnati
  • 9690 Colerain Ave., Cincinnati
  • 359 Miamisburg Centerville Rd., Dayton
  • 1520 N. Clinton St., Defiance
  • 1170 Indiana Ave., Saint Marys
  • 7779 Tylersville Rd., West Chester
