Another retailer is leaving Lincoln.

Shopko on Wednesday filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Nebraska and announced plans to close additional stores.

Among the closures announced were all the Shopko stores in Lincoln.

The Wisconsin-based retailer in December announced plans to close the north Lincoln Shopko at 3400 N. 27th St. Wednesday, it said it will close the remaining three stores, at 27th Street and Nebraska 2, 27th Street and Pine Lake Road and 66th & O streets.

According to a store closing list, the north Lincoln store is scheduled to close March 3, while the other stores are slated to close about April 15.

The company also plans to close its store in Bellevue, as well as Shopko Hometown stores in Kimball, Ord and Plattsmouth.

The optical centers at all of the Lincoln locations and the ones in Bellevue and Plattsmouth will remain open and be relocated to new locations. Shopko said its freestanding optical business has been a bright spot and that it plans to expand it.

Company officials could not be reached for comment on the local closures.
