Carlie C's announces closure of College Street store in Clinton

By Staff Report, posted 2 years ago

Carlie C's has announced the closure of its store located at 815 College Street in Clinton. Management explains that this decision comes after careful consideration and extensive deliberation, as the lease for the location has reached its expiration.

The College Street store has been an integral part of the community, serving valued customers for seven years since it was converted from a Piggly Wiggly to Carlie C’s.

Carlie C's would like to express its heartfelt gratitude to the loyal customers and dedicated employees who have been a part of this journey. The company wants to assure their customers and employees that this decision was not taken lightly, and it is in no way a reflection of the exceptional dedication and hard work of the staff at the College Street location.

All employees from the College Street store will be retained within the Carlie C's family. Efforts are being made to place each team member in other locations within the chain.

As they transition from the College Street store, they invite their valued customers to visit other nearby stores in Clinton, which will continue to provide the same excellent shopping experience patrons have come to expect from Carlie C's.
