Zales Jewelers is in the final stages of finding a new home, The Dallas Morning News reports, and will leave the building that the company once called its headquarters prior to being acquired by Signet Jewelers in 2014. The report says that Zales will leave its longtime digs in Irving, TX when the lease expires in March 2018 for a to-be-determined location in Dallas. Signet is close to signing a new lease for a space that “will be retrofitted for support operations, including a new product assembly department.”

Retiring? Let Wilkerson Do the Heavy Lifting

Retirement can be a great part of life. As Nanji Singadia puts it, “I want to retire and enjoy my life. I’m 78 now and I just want to take a break.” That said, Nanji decided that the best way to move ahead was to contact the experts at Wilkerson. He chose them because he knew that closing a store is a heavy lift. To maximize sales and move on to the next, best chapter of his life, he called Wilkerson—but not before asking his industry friends for their opinion. He found that Wilkerson was the company most recommended and says their professionalism, experience and the homework they did before the launch all helped to make his going out of business sale a success. “Wilkerson were working on the sale a month it took place,” he says. “They did a great job.”
