Long time appliance chain shutters doors, files Chapter 11 bankruptcy

The news broke yesterday that yet another big-box retailer is struggling to stay afloat. Major Appliance Inc., which has been a staple on American main streets for over two decades, announced it would be closing its doors and filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

According to sources close to the company, Major Appliance Inc.'s decline was sparked by increased competition from online retailers and rising operational costs. The chain's failure marks another significant blow to brick-and-mortar stores struggling to adapt in an increasingly digital world.

A look at what went wrong

• Lack of investment in e-commerce platforms, failing to keep pace with the shift to online shopping
• Rising operational costs due to increased minimum wage requirements and rising transportation expenses
• Decreased customer foot traffic as consumers increasingly turn to online marketplaces for their appliance needs
