American Freight’s Going-Out-Of-Business Sale: Big Discounts Across South Carolina!
Columbia, S.C. – If you’re living in South Carolina, get ready for some major savings! American Freight, the popular nationwide appliance and furniture store, has just announced that it’s closing all of its locations, including ten stores right here in South Carolina. That’s right! If you’ve been eyeing that perfect sofa or kitchen appliance, now might be your last chance to snag it at a great price.
Closing Down and Prices Going Down!
So, what’s happening? Hilco Consumer-Retail, the parent company of American Freight, recently made the tough decision to shut down all 328 stores across the United States. This includes our very own locations on Atlas Road in Columbia and nine others in cities like Greenville, North Charleston, Rock Hill, and Myrtle Beach.
The news comes after American Freight filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in a Delaware federal court, citing rising inflation and ongoing macroeconomic challenges as the reasons for their closure. It’s certainly been a tough time for many retailers across the country, and this decision reflects those realities.
Shop ‘Til You Drop!
Now, let’s talk about the silver lining in this scenario—the sales! American Freight has kicked off massive discounts to help clear out its inventory. Talk about a shopper’s paradise! Customers can enjoy discounts of up to 30% off on the lowest ticketed prices throughout the store. This includes everything from chic living room sets and cozy bedroom furniture to sturdy dining tables. And don’t forget about the appliances! You can also find a variety of scratch & dent items alongside new in-box refrigerators, washers, and dryers.
The good news doesn’t stop there! American Freight assured shoppers that new inventory will still be arriving, which means there are plenty of options available for customers who decide to take part in the sale.
Time is of the Essence!
Bursting with enthusiasm, Hilco Consumer-Retail CEO Ian Fredericks shared in a statement, “Our goal is to deliver outstanding value to customers during this full chain closing sale. Everything is on sale and must be sold, and we recommend shopping early for the best selection.” So if you have an eye on something special, it sounds like it might be wise to race in before your favorites are gone!
