Dollar Tree said it will close about 1,000 of its Family Dollar  stores after suffering a significant quarterly loss.

Dollar Tree, which owns Family Dollar, on Wednesday announced that it will shutter 600 of its Family Dollar stores in the first half of the year as part of its portfolio optimization. An additional 370 stores will close once their leases expire, the company said in its fourth-quarter earnings report.

In addition, 30 Dollar Tree locations will also close as their leases expire.
