Eight Starbucks stores in Arkansas--including two at Rogers--are among the 600 being closed nationwide, Starbucks Corporation said Thursday.
The Seattle-based company announced earlier this month that it would close 600 company-owned stores in the U.S. starting in July and continuing through the first half of the next fiscal year. But Starbucks didn't say at the time which locations would be shut down, until now.
A list released on the company's website says the stores to be closed in Arkansas, in addition to the two at Rogers, are at Blytheville, Lowell, Malvern, Marion, North Little Rock and Van Buren.

Two in NLR. The one they are closing is east of McCain Mall, just behind the Hooters! Never a good location, no drive-thru. Don't think Hooter's hurt their business, but Hooter's is the only business to thrive in that little area.
