I am one of the many dedicated customers of the Torrid Plus Size Women's clothing store at the Citadel Mall in Colorado Springs. This outlet is indispensable to my wardrobe as 90% of my clothing and shoes are purchased from here. The Colorado Springs Torrid store houses a unique variety of clothing that perfectly fits plus-size women and also stocks professional women's attire that caters to diverse needs. Their impressive level of customer service at this particular location is unmatched by any other retail shop in our city. However, the survival of this store is currently at risk.

Amazingly, in an era marked by economic uncertainties, this Torrid outlet has been a pillar of resiliency, maintaining positive revenue flow for the last 12 months. The closure of this store would not only affect the local economic vibrancy but significantly inconvenience its loyal customers given that the closest Torrid would be a daunting 40 miles to the south or an equally challenging 50 miles to the north of Colorado Springs.

We respectfully appeal to the management of the Citadel Mall and the Torrid Brand to keep this essential store open and continue supporting the unique needs of the plus-size community in Colorado Springs. By signing this petition, you are standing with us — the loyal customers of Torrid who refuse to lose a local retail beacon that caters to our specific needs. Please sign this petition to keep our beloved store right where it belongs.
