Family Video - From Closing To Abandoned!

Kids These Days, Don't Know How Good They Have It. Before Streaming Video, We Had To Rent Physical DVDs, & The Last Video Store Chain To Go, Was Family Video.

📚History:
- Family Video Was Founded In 1978. Because competitor Blockbuster's main focus was larger cities, Family Video was mostly established in rural areas, suburbs, and small-to-midsize cities. In late 2019, the number of stores was reported to be almost 600, down from a peak of 800, but due to the pandemic, the chain was forced to close 200 stores in Fall 2020, with about 300 locations remaining. On January 5, 2021, the company announced all remaining 250 stores would close. It was announced the chain would become an online web store only, offering new and used video sales along with Family Video branded merchandise i.e. t-shirts, coffee mugs, tumblers, hats, gym bags, key chains, water bottles, etc. However, the website was closed at the end of March 2022, ending Family Video's business after forty-four years.
