Sad news today as Art Van announced they will be liquidated and close all company-owned stores. Liquidation sales will begin on March 6. Employees have been notified on Thursday morning in a company phone call. Our thoughts are with the thousands of employees who will be affected.
"Despite our best efforts to remain open, the Company's brands and operating performance have been hit hard by a challenging retail environment," said Diane Charles, Art Van Furniture spokesperson. "We recognize the extraordinary retail, community and philanthropic legacies that Art Van Furniture has built for decades in the community."
