Local Starbucks Closing


Just a quick update on the Starbucks news, this is from the afternoon email sent out by the Greater Fort Wayne Business Weekly:

Starbucks Corp. said Friday it will close its store in Bluffton at 2133 N. Main St.
Starbucks previously had announced plans to close approximately 600 unprofitable company-operated stores in the United States beginning this month and continuing through the first half of the 2009 fiscal year.
On Friday, the company identified the first group of stores to be closed. Those stores, including the Bluffton location and one in Indianapolis, will close by the end of the month, Starbucks said.

Other closures will be detailed in the following months, the company said.
The "determination of each store's closure date is dependent on several operational and contractual factors and events," Starbucks said in a statement.
