American Apparel announced on Monday that it will close stores and lay off employees as it tries to cut costs and turn around its fortunes following a turbulent era.

The cuts will save a total of $30 million, the company said, though it did not say how many shops or jobs will be affected. American Apparel has a fleet of 239 retail locations and a total workforce of around 10,000.
