From News Nation:
“Walmart to close all US
stores for Thanksgiving Day as ‘thank you’ to employees”
Walmart announced Friday that all
of its U.S. store locations will be closed on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 25. The
company said it will close all stores for a second consecutive year as a “thank
you” to associates for their “continued hard work during the pandemic.” “Throughout the pandemic, our associates have
been nothing short of heroic in how they have stepped up to serve our customers
and their communities,” said Dacona Smith, executive vice president and chief
operating officer for Walmart U.S. “Closing our stores on Thanksgiving Day is
one way we’re saying ‘thank you’ to our teams for their dedication and hard
work this year. We hope everyone will take the opportunity to be with their
loved ones during what’s always a special time.” Walmart has not revealed store
hours for Black Friday (Nov. 26). The company said that information will be
shared “at a later date.” Several stores that normally remain open on
Thanksgiving Day were closed in 2020, including Kohls and Target.
^ It’s sad that it took a Pandemic
for stores like Walmart to do this. ^
