BLUE ASH, Ohio — Two Tri-State Kohl's locations are closing their doors this weekend after the company announced it was shutting down nearly 30 "underperforming" stores across the United States.

Kohl's announced in January it would close 27 locations across 15 states by April 2025. Those locations included the Blue Ash store on Hunt Road and the Forest Park store on Cincinnati Mills Drive.

The company said all employees at the locations have been informed of the closure and offered a severance package or the ability to apply for other roles within Kohl's.

"We always take these decisions very seriously," Tom Kingsbury, Kohl’s CEO, said in a release. "As we continue to build on our long-term growth strategy, it is important that we also take difficult but necessary actions to support the health and future of our business for our customers and our teams."

With the closures, Kohl's will have around 1,100 locations still open, including four other locations in Hamilton County.
