Pearson’s Luggage And Gifts Announces They’re Going Out Of Business
Pearson's Luggage and Gifts has been in business in Lafayette for as long as I can remember. Today, they have announced the unfortunate news that they'll be closing their doors for good.
Pearson's Luggage and Gifts issued a press release this morning announcing their closure due to what they say is a result of online shopping. Pearson's has been serving the Acadiana area for 37 years.
From the official press release -
Beginning Tuesday February 7, 2017 Pearson’s will begin a clearance sale with the intention of liquidating its entire inventory as well as displays and stock room equipment. The sale will begin at an extra 20%-50% off retail, and will continue till all inventory is liquidated. This is a real liquidation sale not a come-on sale. Name brands such as Tumi, Rimowa, Briggs and Riley, and Bosca are available on a first come basis. NO SPECIAL ORDERS.
Thank you, Lafayette, and the entire trading area for 37 wonderful years. The Baton Rouge location will remain open.
