Saks Fifth Avenue announced that it plans to close its Saks Fifth Avenue store located in the Shops at Riverside in Hackensack, New Jersey. The store is expected to close in late 2014.

"Closing a location is never an easy business decision. At this time, we are committed to offering support and assistance to our team affected by the closing," commented Marigay McKee, President of Saks Fifth Avenue.

Approximately 105 associates are employed in this location. All affected associates will either be offered transfer opportunities or will receive appropriate employment separation packages.
