If you're a frequent Maine Mall shopper, you know that the beginning of any new year brings some change to the shopping destination.

In some years, maybe one or two stores close and are quickly filled with new retailers looking to make a mark.

In other years, there's several closures of known brands for a variety of reasons. Most of them having to do with finances.

For 2026, it has been a challenging year for some known brands at the Maine Mall. And it's about to become a little more challenging as another business will be closing their mall location permanently.
