Macy’s is set to close its Backstage operation at the distribution center in South Windsor, Connecticut, affecting 106 employees between December 28, 2025, and January 10, 2026. The layoffs will be permanent, and impacted workers will receive information about severance and job opportunities at nearby locations, although they have no union representation or bumping rights. A spokesperson stated that this decision is part of Macy’s effort to modernize its supply chain and improve efficiency, centralizing operations to a facility in Columbus, OH, while also expanding automation at its new distribution center in North Carolina.
