Appelt's Jewelry has decided to close down its operation at the Portage la Prairie Mall.
The mall has lost two biggies, Wal-Mart and Safeway, which used to attract people, and smaller retailers were reaping the benefits of this. But now the traffic coming to the mall is very less.
Bert Appelt, President of Appelt's Jewellery said that Portage store would love to run its operation if the mall is able to attract the traffic to support it.
This closure would mean that all workers at the outlet will be unemployed.
Appelt's opened its store at the Portage site in 1988 and has been a member of local chamber for last 18 years.
The company has three stores in Winnipeg and retail outlets in Steinbach and Morden.
