A DINOSAUR GOES TOES UP

By Bob Walsh


The Wellsville Kmart location pictured in January 2019. The store closed shortly thereafter and remained empty until a Runnings store opened at the site in 2023.


The last of the old style BIG K-MART stores in the lower 48 will be closing down next month.  The store is in Bridgehampton, New York. 

There is still one downsized K-Mart in Miami and three stores in the U. S. Virgin Islands.

K-Mart started up in Garden City, Michigan in 1962.

Adapt or die is especially true in retail.
