At least two Peet’s Coffee locations are reportedly closing in Southern California as other locations in the Bay Area were set to shutter last month.
The Los Angeles Times reported that locations in Redondo Beach and Manhattan Beach were closing, as confirmed by employees.
Peet’s Coffee did not immediately respond to the USA TODAY Network seeking confirmation of the reported closures, and whether any other Southern California locations were expected to shutter at this time.

The coffee chain, which originated in Berkeley and has operated for decades, has over 200 locations in California, according to its online store locator. In January, several locations in the Bay Area were set to close, and a company spokesperson explained that the closures were due to "a broader effort to align our business with long-term growth priorities."
The USA TODAY Network left voicemails at phone numbers for both Peet’s Coffee locations in Manhattan and Redondo Beach. Both locations were not listed on the company’s store locator as of Monday, Feb. 2.
The shakeup comes as Keurig Dr. Pepper continues its efforts to acquire JDE Peet's, behind brands like Peet’s Coffee. If realized, Keurig Dr. Pepper said it’ll separate into two publicly-traded companies, “creating a scaled growth challenger in North America’s attractive refreshment beverages market and a global coffee leader that will serve 100+ countries.”
