It may not be the type of "local" business that some support, but it does have local employees, and that to me, makes it worth talking about.

According to Investopedia.com:

  • A Chapter 11 bankruptcy allows a company to stay in business and restructure its obligations.
  • If a company filing for Chapter 11 opts to propose a reorganization plan, it must be in the best interest of the creditors.
  • If the debtor does not put forth a plan, the creditors may propose one instead.
  • Many major corporations, including General Motors and K-Mart, have used Chapter 11 bankruptcies as an opportunity to restructure their debts while continuing to do business.

The Bed, Bath, and Beyond here in Bozeman is located at 2155 Cattail St.

Many people use Bed, Bath, and Beyond for home decorating, wedding registries, and finding unique "as seen on tv" products. The company has been in a bit of turmoil, over the last year with closing different locations sporadically throughout the U.S.

Unfortunately, it didn't seem like it would be too long before this announcement was made.
