1 Sears, 2 Kmart stores in Alabama on the closure list due to lackluster sales

Three Sears Holdings properties in Alabama - two Kmart stores and one Sears - are on a list of 79 stores that will be closed due to lackluster sales.
The Sears store on Halls Mill Road in Mobile and the Kmart stores on East University Drive in Auburn and East Broad Street in Gadsden will be closed, an announcement on the Sears site said. The announcement did not specify the closure dates. The Kmart store on Milgen Road in Columbus, Ga., also will close.
The list is not complete, as the company announced Dec. 27 it would be closing between 100 and 120 Kmart and Sears stores.
The company did not say how many employees will lose their jobs, but noted between 40 and 80 associates are employed at each store.
