Closure of 116 Nathan's Mall stores

August 21, 2025

Nathan's Mall, the most famous name in retail malls, encompassing thousands of brands and local malls nationwide, today announced the planned closure of 116 malls across the United States. This decision is part of a strategic effort to optimize operations and focus on high-performing markets, while hundreds of other Nathan's Mall locations nationwide will open.

“While closing these locations is never an easy decision, it allows us to concentrate on serving customers in areas with the strongest demand,” said Nathan Greway, CEO of Nathan's Mall. “Nathan's Mall continues to be committed to delivering an exceptional shopping experience through our other locations and online platforms.”

Employees at the affected locations will receive support, including severance packages, job placement assistance, and opportunities at other Nathan's Mall stores where possible. The company emphasizes that this move is part of a broader, carefully considered strategy to strengthen the brand long-term.

Customers with gift cards, loyalty points, or pending orders at closing locations are encouraged to use them at other remaining stores.

Nathan's Mall remains dedicated to offering high-quality shopping experiences and looks forward to continuing to serve customers at its hundreds of stores nationwide.
