Express is closing 31 stores by the end of this weekend. Is your location on the list of closures?

This weekend is the last chance to shop at 31 closing Express stores.

The stores are closing as part of the fashion retailer’s “fleet rationalization,” which Express officials announced Wednesday and includes 100 closures overall.

“These 31 will be closed by the end of this weekend,” Express spokeswoman Alysa Spittle told USA TODAY Friday and provided a list of the closing locations.

Another 35 stores will close by the end of January 2021 and the rest by 2022. The company recently closed nine stores.

Express has been grappling with challenges that have undermined other mall retailers in recent years – namely declining foot traffic, fast-fashion rivals and online competition.

As of Nov. 2, Express had 411 primarily mall-based retail stores and 215 outlet stores, according to a public filing.
