They sold off all their pharmacy business to CVS in the last year. I'm sure that was their only money maker. I can't imagine anyone saying "Oh cool, there's a Fred's let me go inside".

Was told yesterday by a manager of the Fred's that closed down that they had sold out to a company in Canada.

Never been in one. Now maybe soon dicks will follow along with walmarks!


If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.

trust me i personally know the founder of Freds. My wife is a cousin to his wife, my father grew up and went to school with him and his twin brother. I think things went downhill after he retired. he has made millions.

No worse than the cheap junk sold at Walmart.

The Fred's here in Luverne has some good people who have been there for years. I'm sure they will land on their feet somewhere, but it sucks for them.

Fred's was not well managed. That is the real problem with their stores..... most were dirty dumpy places. Not all but a lot of them were.

Hopefully a Dollar General or Dollar Tree will overtake the space and these people won't be out of a job for long.


No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.
