Kohl's drops key partnership in some locations
The company is testing out a big change.

That in turn has hit retailers hard, with more than 7,300 stores permanently closing their doors in 2024.
Department stores have also been hit hard over the past half-decade. During the pandemic consumers shifted to online shopping since visiting stores was considered hazardous to their health. But many department stores struggled in that area.
