Is Marshalls open on July 4 2021?
INDEPENDENCE Day celebrations will look different sixteen months into the pandemic as Dr. Fauci announced that, "you can do whatever you want on July 4 if you're fully vaccinated." Shoppers are gearing up to celebrate their country with barbecue, fireworks and more. 3 There are more than 1,100 Marshalls stores in the US. Although Marshalls is not always open every day for customers, it will be open for business on Sunday, July 4. Marshalls does a significant amount of business during the holiday season so they tend to stay open throughout the year on major holidays. It's worth noting that local stores reserve the right to change hours as they deem necessary, so it's best to check your local store hours before you head out. Marshalls, a chain of off-price department stores owned by TJX Companies, was founded in 1956 in Beverly, Massachusetts. The company launched after Alfred Marshall gathered together "a band of innovative entrepreneurs" on the East Coast, according to FundingUniverse. "Contemplating the dual postwar phenomena of a boom in the economy and growth in the suburbs, Marshall and associates came upon a way to meet it profitably," according to the website. "Together, they opened a self-service department store in Beverly, Massachusetts, offering apparel and homewares at alluringly low prices." By the mid-1960s Marshalls had become the leading off-price retail chain in the country. "By buying up manufacturers' post-season, over-run, and close-out stock, Marshalls was able to offer fashionable, high-quality 'designer' items at prices 20 to 60 percent less than those of the department stores," according to FundingUniverse. The website added: "The problem with the creative and successful plan, however, was that it inspired many imitators. "As Marshalls' sales recipe became a favorite, many other retailers created off-price stores of their own. "Moreover, department stores were also fighting for their share of consumer interest and began marking down merchandise as well." Most convenience stores, grocery stores, and restaurant chains will remain open on July 4. Specifically, these stores include:  Best Buy  Cost Plus World Market  Joann  Kirkland's  Kroger  Save A Lot  Target  T.J. Maxx  Walgreens  Walmart  Whole Foods  Like Marshalls, many stores are operating under limited schedules depending on local regulations. 3 Marshalls remains open on most major holidays Credit: Getty  It's best to call beforehand to ensure your store location's hours have not changed.
