TJ Maxx to Close All U.S. Stores on Christmas Day

In a move that reflects a growing trend of retailers closing their doors on major holidays, TJ Maxx has announced it will close all of its 1,319 U.S. stores on Christmas Day, December 25, 2024.

The decision includes locations of its sister chain, Marshalls, which will also observe the closure. This marks the second year in a row that the discount retailer has taken the step to allow employees to spend the holiday with their families.

TJ Maxx’s closure on Christmas Day is part of a broader industry shift, with many retailers opting to shut down for the day to promote family time and rest for employees. This follows a similar decision in 2024 to close on Thanksgiving Day, with the stores resuming regular hours the following day.

Although this holiday closure is temporary, TJ Maxx has seen a number of permanent store closures across the U.S. in recent months.

Notably, a TJ Maxx location in St. Paul, Minnesota, closed in early 2024. Despite these closures, the company clarified that it remains committed to its retail operations, and affected employees were offered positions at other nearby stores.

The closures are also seen as a part of the company’s strategy to ensure operational efficiency and enhance the customer experience at remaining locations. Some stores, such as those in smaller markets, have faced challenges maintaining foot traffic during the off-peak seasons.

Shoppers planning to visit TJ Maxx or Marshalls on Christmas Day will need to adjust their shopping schedules, as both chains will resume normal operations on December 26, 2024.

For more information on holiday hours and upcoming store closures, customers can visit the TJ Maxx website or check with local stores directly.

While the closures on holidays may be seen as a sign of changing retail practices, there is no indication that the company plans to permanently close all its stores.
