Toys ‘R’ Us Shutters Its Two U.S. Stores a Year After Opening

Toys “R” Us has once again disappeared from America’s retail landscape.

The former industry titan recently closed its only two U.S. stores, including a location in New Jersey this week, according to a spokeswoman. The outlets were opened in late 2019 by Tru Kids Inc., an entity that acquired the brand’s intellectual property during the retail giant’s 2018 liquidation. The new entity said it may get back into brick and mortar at some point.
