Francesca’s, a longtime favorite for women’s fashion, is shutting down all its stores—including the ones at Boise Towne Square Mall and The Village at Meridian. This isn’t just another store leaving the mall; it’s a sign of how much retail is changing in our area. After surviving a previous bankruptcy, Francesca’s couldn’t weather the storm this time, reportedly facing over $250 million in unpaid bills. With so many familiar shops disappearing, what do you think this means for shopping in Boise and Meridian? Are you more likely to shop online now, or do you miss the in-person experience? #Business #LocalBusiness #FrancescasClosing
