Beloved Shop Shutting Down in USA

United States
March 11, 2024 2:09pm CST
The Body Shop is filing for bankruptcy and shutting all remaining USA stores. The Body Shop started out in Brighton, England, a beautiful seaside town I remember well. Anyway I wish I could order bunches of the hand cream as it is the only thing that works for me, since many years now. C'est la vie. Did you ever like any of their products?

We have Body Shops here too. I haven't heard of them closing. Maybe they're franchises or whatever.

Wow, no way! I used to shop there long ago - mainly for gifts. I am surprised they would close all their US shops!

@RebeccasFarm So many businesses have had to make drastic changes - even the biggies. It is sad, but goes to show no business is a for sure thing forever.

They never recovered from being sold off and then an equity company got them and that seems to be that

@RebeccasFarm The Body Shop is 30 kilometres from our place and so it has been a long time I have not been there.
