(KNZA)--The Holton Country Mart has begun the process of closing its doors.
The plan to close was announced to employees earlier this week.
According to store co-owner Kent Conwell, at their high point, the store employed a total of 80 workers, counting both full and part-time.
An exact date for the closure is not mapped out, with Conwell saying a percent-off sale will begin Monday, and the reduction of inventory will ultimately determine the date of closure.
Conwell says an official statement, including a thank you to the store's customers, will be released Monday.
Holton Country Mart has operated in the Jackson County community for 28-years.
