It's unfortunate anytime a business in the local community closes its doors for good. Recently, a popular pizza joint is closing its Massachusetts location after being in business for 25 years.
No matter what business it is, it's always unfortunate to see any location have to close up shop. It just so happens that a popular retail chain recently announced that it is having to close several of its stores across the country, and that happens to include one of its locations here in Massachusetts.
An end of an era has come as Party City is planning on closing its stores after nearly 40 years in business. And they're not just closing some of them, they're closing all of them!
No matter what store it is, we always hate to see it happen wherever it may be, but especially when a store needs to close its doors in Massachusetts. One the more popular retail chains in the Bay State after the holiday season and in effect causing several layoffs for the current employees.
As everyone knows, times are especially tough right now. When a Massachusetts business has to close its doors for good, that just hits that much harder.
