Sports Authority plans to keep all of its Hawaii locations open after declaring bankruptcy, customers are being told.
The fitness and sportsware chain has two locations on the Big Island, one at the Prince Kuhio Plaza in Hilo and another in Kailua-Kona.
Customers at the Hilo location, which opened in 2012, were told not to worry as the stores in the Aloha State are not on the list of 140 locations to close.
According to Bloomberg news, the company filed for bankruptcy protection with a plan to slim down after it missed out on a fitness boom that the media outlet said has been a rare bright spot in retail.
