After many efforts to stay afloat, Fort Worth-based Pier I Imports has thrown in the embroidered towel and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

The home furnishings chain said in a release that it filed for bankruptcy in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Richmond, Virginia, and is officially for sale. The company is entertaining offers from multiple potential buyers who may acquire them out of bankruptcy.

Meanwhile, they'll close up to 450 stores, including all of its stores in Canada.

A company spokesperson would not confirm the closures, but USA Today magically has a list of 300 stores set to shutter, including 20 stores across Texas.

That includes 5 in the DFW area as follows:

The closures will be staggered over the next few months, with some stores such as the location in Irving, closing at the end of February, and others closing later in the spring. Sales have already started at all of the stores that are closing.

According to CNBC, they're also closing two distribution centers.

The closures were initially announced in January, although the locations were not identified at that time. It represents about half of their total number of stores.
