Here’s a List of The Disney Stores Permanently Closing This Month
If you’ve been following along with MickeyBlog you’ll know that earlier this week we reported that 60 Disney Stores will be closing later this month. The reason sited by the company was a shift toward online ordering via the shopDisney website. In addition we can only assume that sales at Disney’s brick and mortar stores has been greatly impacted by the COVID-19 shutdown.
