The Wisconsin-based retailer announced late in 2018 it was closing 39 stores in 19 states by the end of February. At least two Montana stores are among those closing: in Plentywood and in Wolf Point.
The chain operates about 360 stores in 24 states. Shopko intends to seek bankruptcy protection from creditors next week.
