Brookstone also applied for bankruptcy in August 2018. It planned to shut down 101 stores across the country as well. Unfortunately, the declining mall foot traffic has also dealt a blow to its sales. Like Gump’s, it hopes to find a buyer but just for the e-commerce, wholesale operations, and airport shops.

In May 2018, Rockport Group filed for Chapter 11. However, it was soon bought out by Charlesbank Capital Partners. The acquisition was completed by July 2018. Let us hope that this private-equity company with a diverse portfolio will help get it back to its feet! No pun intended.
