CAMDEN, NEW JERSEY – A.C. Moore, based out of New Jersey, announced that it will close all of its more than 145 stores.

The company, based in Berlin, Camden County, is no longer taking online orders as of Monday but will ship orders that have already been placed. A.C. Moore has one store in Rockland County located in Nanuet.

Anthony Piperno, Chief Executive Officer of A.C. Moore said, “For over 30 years, our stores have been servicing the creative community with a vast selection of art and craft materials, with one common focus, the customer. Unfortunately, given the headwinds facing many retailers in today’s environment, it made it very difficult for us to operate and compete on a National level. During this process, we will continue to provide great customer experience, while still delivering quality and value on your favorite products. Plans for closing specific A.C. Moore locations will be shared in the upcoming weeks on our website. While we will stop accepting further online orders as of today, we will ship any previously placed orders in the ordinary course.”

Michaels Craft stores will assume the leases for up to 40 A.C. Moore locations on the east coast and a distribution center.

Those 40 locations will reopen under the Michaels name in 2020, but the individual stores have not yet been chosen.

Piperno said the move will allow A.C. Moore employees in those locations the opportunity to serve loyal customers.

No time frame was given on that transition or the closing of the chain’s other stores.

A.C. Moore opened its first store in Moorestown, Burlington County in 1985.
