Abercrombie & Fitch closing its lone WV store

The state’s only Abercrombie & Fitch store is closing at the Charleston Town Center Mall.   The retailer sells upscale clothing targeting young adults as it’s core customers.   

The company has been a fixture at the Town Center since November 2001.

Mall officials say evidently the store wasn’t living up to expectations and will now close. 

The store employs 80-full and part time employees.

The store is a sister company of Hollister which has stores in Charleston, Huntington, and Morgantown.  The Hollister store will stay in place at the Town Center.
