Transformco, the owner of the Sears and Kmart banners, is moving to close more stores after years of steady retrenchment. The company’s job postings from recent weeks list temporary positions tied to store closures at 13 stores, one at a Kmart and the rest at Sears stores. The closures include stores in California, Hawaii, Texas, Virginia, Maryland, Florida, Massachusetts, and New York.
