A user named @luluono98 said that they were called to the office and told that ‘it’s the last day that Fry’s Electronics is open to the public’.
Why is Fry’s Electronics going out of the business?
2020 has been a rough year for almost everyone. People and their businesses suffered a lot because of the global pandemic. This pandemic brought so many businesses to miseries. Workers had to resign from their jobs because they were not getting paid for the employment. The same thing happened to Fry’s, they did not survive COVID-19. A lot of other companies had to shut their business because of the pandemic.

The company had faced COVID-19 challenges but couldn’t stand against the pandemic. The company made an official announcement saying that shutting off their business will be in the best interest of the company.
