Retailer Century 21 is getting ready to shut its 13 stores and layoff hundreds of employees.

Both will happen by Nov. 22, according to a New York Post report.

The retailer went into bankruptcy in early September due to the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The layoffs include 855 workers in the three states it has stores, New York, Florida and Pennsylvania. Some employees have already been laid off, according to the news report.
