AUSTIN (KXAN) – Randalls will close one of its Austin stores “on or before September 11,” according to a company spokesman.
The Randalls store on 6600 S. MoPac Expressway, at the intersection of the freeway with William Cannon Drive in southwest Austin, will be closed because it is “below average,” the spokesman said.

“In the normal course of business, we must routinely evaluate the performance of our store portfolio. In such a competitive market, the company sometimes has to make the difficult decision of closing underperforming deals, “the spokesman said.
The company says it is working to send as many employees as possible to the surrounding Randalls stores. The closest Randalls to closing Randalls is 3 miles away at the intersection of Brodie Lane and Slaughter Lane.
The store has leased the building, so it is unknown what could go in after Randall’s eviction, the spokesman said.
“Randalls remains committed to the Austin market and we are inviting customers to shop in our remaining Austin and vicinity locations, some of which have recently been remodeled,” said the spokesman.
