The JC Penney store at Tanforan Mall in San Bruno is one of seven stores expected to close on May 25.
In a statement to ABC's "Good Morning America," JCPenney said the decision to shutter locations "is never an easy one."
"We are grateful to our dedicated associates and the loyal customers who have shopped at these locations, and we hope to continue serving them throughout our nearly 650 stores nationwide and online at JCPenney.com," the company said. "While we do not have plans to significantly reduce our store count, isolated closures in specific markets do happen from time to time due to expiring lease agreements, market changes or other factors."
This comes as the company continues its restructuring efforts following its 2020 bankruptcy filing.
The latest round of shut downs are taking place at mall locations where foot traffic has been down in recent years.
