In a move that reflects the 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 also affects locations at sister chain Marshalls, which will also be affected by the closure. This is the second year in a row that the discount retailer has taken the step of giving its employees the opportunity to spend the holidays with their families.

TJ Maxx’s Christmas Day closure is part of a broader shift in the industry, as many retailers choose to close on the day to promote family time and recreation for employees. This follows a similar decision in 2024 to close on Thanksgiving Day and resume regular business hours the following day.

Although this holiday closure is temporary, TJ Maxx has experienced 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 made it clear that it remains committed to its retail business, and affected employees have been offered positions at other nearby stores.

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

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

For more information about holiday seasons and upcoming store closures, customers can visit the TJ Maxx website or contact their local stores.

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