Party City

Retailer Party City, which declared bankruptcy in January, will close 10 stores and auction off another 12 in the coming weeks.

According to the filing, one of the stores slated for closure is the company’s location in suburban Bradley, Illinois with closing sales expected to occur in coming days.

Another location in Holland, Michigan is also among the 10 that will cease operations, according to the filing.

The company also plans to auction off 12 stores across the U.S. in six states, with three Michigan stores among those to be sold off. Locations in Jackson, Fort Gratiot and Benton Harbor will be sold.

It is unclear when the store closures will take place, and the company says more closures could potentially occur.

Cartersville, Georgia

Bradley, Illinois

Waterloo, Iowa

Slidell, Louisiana

Holland, Michigan

West Paterson, New Jersey

New York, New York
