This has been happening quite often lately as businesses adapt to changing consumer habits. This situation is no different.

American Freight is shuttering all locations. The news comes amidst the parent company, Franchise Group Inc., filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy earlier this month.

American Freight has locations in both Minnesota and Wisconsin and all of them are closing.

As of now, an exact closing date has not been announced. However, the chain has already started promoting their 'out of business' sales to get rid of remaining inventory.
