Haggen, Inc. is leaving California after a dramatic expansion gone wrong forced the grocery chain to file for bankruptcy protection this month.
The Los Angeles Times reports the Bellingham, Washington company announced it’s closing all its stores in the state as part of a larger exit of its Pacific Southwest holdings, including in Arizona and Nevada. This affects at least 100 outlets, with 67 in California. The decision follows the closure of 27 stores announced last month.
Haggen plans to keep 37 stores in Washington and Oregon, which is its home base.
