industry, becoming the first major electronics retailer to announce
Thanksgiving Day closure.
“We stand behind our core values and beliefs of being a
family-first company,” said Bob Riesbeck, President and CEO of
hhgregg. “It’s important to us that our associates are able to be
home with their families on Thanksgiving, and we are encouraging
our customers to do the same – knowing great deals will be
available online, on Black Friday and through the weekend.”

electronics industry leaders to take charge and move the shift
back, in order to give associates, and people in general, more
quality time with family and friends,” added Chris Sutton, SVP of
