Borders files for Chapter 11 as stores face closure
Borders, slow to adapt to online and digital shifts, filed for Chapter 11 in New York. The retailer plans to shut about 200 of 642 stores, affecting 6,000 jobs, and owes publishers tens of millions as it battles competition from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and digital books. Analysts cite bungled e commerce and missteps in leadership as key factors.
