Saks Global to Close Neiman Marcus’ Historic Dallas Flagship Store
The closure follows a landlord dispute and comes just months after Saks Global's $2.7 billion acquisition of Neiman Marcus.
- Neiman Marcus’ iconic downtown Dallas flagship store, operational since 1914, will close on March 31 due to a terminated lease after years of landlord negotiations.
- Saks Global, which acquired Neiman Marcus in December 2024, insists the closure is unrelated to the merger or business performance.
- Employees affected by the closure will be offered transfers to other locations, including the NorthPark store, which is set to receive a $100 million renovation.
- The closure is part of broader cost-cutting efforts by Saks Global, which aims to reduce $500 million in expenses and is reviewing its store portfolio for additional closures.
- Neiman Marcus’ downtown Dallas location has been a historic cultural landmark, but its sales performance has lagged behind other locations like the NorthPark store.
