The group's merchandising and marketing base remains in Milwaukee. Bon-Ton converted Elder-Beerman stores in Indiana and Michigan to the newly shortened Carson's name in 2011 and 2012. The chain expanded into Metro Detroit in 2013 with the conversion of three Parisian stores.
Bon-Ton Stores Inc., the struggling parent of retailer Carsonâs, disclosed Thursday that it plans to close at least 40 stores in 2018. Bon-Ton, which operates 260 department stores under several names across 24 states, has just one store in Indianapolis (Carson's), but that store is the only anchor in Circle Centre mall. It also has a Carsonâs store in Mounds Mall in Anderson. CEO Bill Tracy, the former chief operating officer who took over the top spot at Bon-Ton in August, said in a conference call with analysts Thursday that the company was still determining which stores it would close.
