I heard it's 30 stores - Soup and Sweet Tomatoes - but nobody knows what stores are affected.
Do you know if they will be transferring employees, or is everyone being laid off?

Only the underperformers in Midwest and south. Not a chance any will close in strongholds Calif or Florida, likely not Atlanta or AZ where it's also strong. This is one of the best-run chains in the industry, just got overextended by a new CEO after founder left. He's also the guy who had the brainy idea to shrink the big chicken pieces in the soup (a secret weapon of theirs) - that got reversed quick. John Mack needs to come back as CEO!
I can confirm 30 stores are closing - that's all what I know - there is a list that's floating around - search for it
Are sweet tomatoe stores closing in Fl, specifically Ft. Myers and Naples. I've heard rumors the chain is going bankrupt. Is that true??? If FL stores are closing, can you tell me when??? I have some gift cards and I would want to be able to use them. Looking forward to your reply.
YEs, that's what I heard too - all stores in Illinois will be closing
all illinois
