Anyone know what is going on with Kohl's?

Due to Covid and a 90 mile distance from here, its been at least two years since I've been to my favorite Kohl's. My daughter, who lives in a major city, says their selection is really going downhill and that the stores are up for sale.

Like most retailers, they have been affected by supply chain issues and the shut down in 2020. I agree that the selection of clothing has been pared WAY back--it's one of the reasons I don't shop there any more--they don't have much in stores and what they do have are usually things that I wouldn't wear. It's what is happening every where.

Even Target doesn't have much of a selection any more.

I have not been into mine for a couple years, but I do see cars in the parking. So someone does go.

For online, I have found better deals.

I don't shop at Kohls but a Kohls in the next town over from me closed. There are rumors that the larger Kohls in my town may close. I'm not usually in the area of that Kohls, but the few times I have been, their parking lot is practically empty.

Yes, the recession/interest rates continuing to go higher....concerns over the cost of gas/food and everything else has led to the closing of stores and empty shelves. Unfortunately, this is not a one-off phenomenon.

Kohl’s may soon have a new owner. Kohl’s (KSS) said late Monday that it had entered into a three-week exclusive negotiation period for a potential sale with Franchise Group (FRG)

Hope so.....Khol's is a wonderful store that deserves survival. Thanks @Desertdi for the info.

My local Kohls is one of my favorite stores. I have always purchased a lot there.

Sadly, they have done away with the Ralph Lauren Chaps line, and that was one of my favorites. The last several trips there, I have not purchased much as the selection has drastically decreased. I still shop there and the store seems to have a lot of business as the lot is always full of cars.

This store recently got a new Sephora and that has been nice to shop. I would be very sad if it closes..........

I had read that the company that owns JC Penny was a possible buyer. I do not remember the name of the company. There was a previous thread about it.

For the most part, I've always really liked my local Kohl's. However, I've been in 2 or 3 times in the past couple of years and their inventory was really bad, IMHO.....far less to choose from and I just didn't care for the clothing styles they were offering. I hope they are able to find a buyer and get turned around!

Our local Kohls is about an hour away. So, we only go about 2-3 times a year to the local store. Before the pandemic, the store was so stocked that you would bump into the clothing racks. I've noticed during and post the pandemic that the store has drastically reduced their stock. Plenty of room to go around the store. Also, the clothing is not the best quality anymore. I have greatly reduced my clothing purchases at Kohls.

Do people really think QVC is the only retailer affected by manufacturing and shipping problems as well as other supply chain issues? These difficulties have hit everyone hard; its just more obvious due to the way QVC operates....until you enter a store and see empty shelves.

I enjoy going to Kohl's but haven't been in a couple of months. Don't remember seeing a for sale notice.

Dillard's and Kohl's are my go to stores.

The last time that I was in our Kohl's store, they were in the process of preparing the area where Sephora will be beginning in July.

I was shocked how much space Sephora was receiving right in the middle of the store. They removed all of their jewelry counters and countless other areas in the store.

It seems they are banking on Sephora to be a huge money maker for them.

I was in my mine over the weekend ( Northeast). It was crowded + had lots of stock. It seemed fine to me..🤷‍♀️

I work very close to a Kohl's, but don't go there often. I RARELY find any clothing for me there. But it is good for finding pants for my DH and son. I do occassionaly buy clothes for my grandkids there.

Frankly, the prices seem high to me. Their sales just brings the price down to what I would pay at a big box store.

We do go there to do Amazon returns, but most of the time I don't even take advantage of the Kohl's coupon they give us for doing that.

My Kohl's is fairly well stocked, but I have noticed a bit less inventory lately. I buy a lot of casual tees, pjs, and my jeans there. I've bought a couple of jackets and coats there too. I still wear & have pieces from a few years ago, so the quality of the clothing for the price has been good for me.

@4kitties

I liked & miss the Chaps line too.

I read a couple of weeks ago that Penneys was interested in buying them. Dony know if its true or not.

This is what I heard too. But I read they would keep the name.

We have one with Sephora inside near us. They made a big deal when that opened, but more and more of their lines are disappearing.

DS doesn't like to buy clothes and doesn't want me to buy them either. He gets his jeans and T-shirts from a consignment shop where he lives. He owns a few pairs of khakis for work and one suit. The only place he would let me shop for him was Kohl's and the Marc Anthony line. So I went in last Christmas season to get a few shirts. They told me the buyers had discontinued that line. I guess it wasn't selling that well.

I shopped there a lot at one time, and I kind of took it for granted. I'm sorry to watch another favorite store decline.

Was very impressed shopping Kohl's online recently. Got my items 2 days after I placed my order.
