Carter’s
Carter’s has decided to permanently close hundreds of sites due to lease expirations in the coming months. In October 2020, the children’s clothes and accessories industry announced plans to close over 200 outlets, with around 60% of those retailers closing by the end of 2021. The present stores will close by the end of 2022.
