99 Cents Only Stores
99 Cents Only Stores was a U.S. discount retail chain that sold groceries, household essentials, health and beauty products, party supplies, seasonal merchandise, snacks, beverages, produce, and general merchandise. The business became especially associated with low-price retailing in California, Arizona, Nevada, and Texas.
The company’s status changed fundamentally in April 2024. 99 Cents Only Stores announced that it would close all 371 stores, began going-out-of-business sales, and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The company cited inflation, shifts in consumer demand, and other economic and operational pressures affecting the viability of its low-price business model.
99 Cents Only Stores should therefore not be presented as an active retail chain in 2026. Dollar Tree acquired the company’s North American intellectual property and designation rights for approximately 170 store leases, while other former locations were acquired or repurposed by different retailers. The remaining post-confirmation 99 Cents Only Stores bankruptcy case continues to be administered for claims and wind-down matters.
No current consumer corporate phone number is operating for the former retail chain.
The business ceased normal retail operations and liquidated its stores in 2024.
No current retail Customer Service number should be presented as active.
99 Cents Only’s store operations ended in 2024.
A bankruptcy filing identified the company’s principal offices as:
99 Cents Only Stores LLC
1730 Flight Way, Suite 100
Tustin, CA 92782
United States.
An older company/business address associated with 99 Cents Only operations was:
4000 East Union Pacific Avenue
City of Commerce, CA 90023
This should now be treated as a historical operating address rather than the active headquarters of an operating retailer.
For the remaining bankruptcy debtor, a March 2026 court record identifies:
99 Cents Only Stores LLC
c/o META Advisors, LLC
3 World Trade Center, 67th Floor
New York, NY 10007.
Former Discount Retail, Grocery, General Merchandise, Household Essentials and Value Retail

The following categories describe the products and retail services 99 Cents Only Stores offered before its liquidation. These are historical, not current product offerings.
99 Cents Only Stores sold packaged food, pantry staples, canned goods, snacks, beverages, and other grocery items at discount prices.
The assortment changed frequently because the company purchased a mix of regular and opportunistic inventory.
Many stores sold fresh fruits and vegetables.
Fresh produce became one of the chain’s distinguishing features compared with traditional dollar-store formats.
Selected locations carried dairy products, refrigerated grocery items, deli products, and other chilled foods.
Stores sold frozen meals, vegetables, desserts, snacks, and other frozen grocery products where freezer capacity was available.
99 Cents Only Stores carried candy, chips, cookies, crackers, nuts, and other snack products.
These included both national brands and value-oriented merchandise.
The chain sold bottled water, soft drinks, juices, energy drinks, tea, and other beverages.
Stores offered cleaning products, storage items, kitchen supplies, paper goods, laundry products, and other household necessities.
Customers could purchase personal-care, hygiene, cosmetics, haircare, and basic health products.
The chain sold balloons, decorations, disposable tableware, gift bags, candles, and other party products.
99 Cents Only carried seasonal goods for holidays, school periods, summer, Halloween, Christmas, and other occasions.
The retailer sold inexpensive toys, games, children’s activities, and seasonal play products.
Stores carried selected pet food, treats, toys, cleaning items, and basic pet accessories.

The remaining post-confirmation case is:
99 Cents Only Stores LLC
Case No. 24-10721 (JKS)
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware.
Court records identify debtor counsel including:
Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell LLP

No current operating-retailer media phone is appropriate.
Not applicable for the former retail chain.
Because 99 Cents Only Stores stopped normal retail operations in 2024, former shoppers should not expect active store-level or central retail Customer Service. Questions about an old purchase, gift card, merchandise credit, or return are especially limited because the liquidation terms stated that gift cards and merchandise credits would only be honored through April 19, 2024, and store-closing sales were final.
For bankruptcy claims or post-confirmation legal matters, the relevant route is the remaining 99 Cents Only Stores LLC bankruptcy case, No. 24-10721 (JKS), rather than an old consumer-service number. Court records from March 2026 identify the post-confirmation debtor’s mailing address as c/o META Advisors, LLC, 3 World Trade Center, 67th Floor, New York, NY 10007.
99 Cents Only Stores no longer has an active retail headquarters in the normal sense.
At the time of the Chapter 11 filing, the debtor’s principal office was listed as:
99 Cents Only Stores LLC
1730 Flight Way, Suite 100
Tustin, CA 92782
United States.
4000 East Union Pacific Avenue
City of Commerce, CA 90023
This address appeared in older business and supplier records associated with the company.
It should now be marked historical rather than current headquarters.
As of a March 2026 bankruptcy-court record:
99 Cents Only Stores LLC
c/o META Advisors, LLC
3 World Trade Center, 67th Floor
New York, NY 10007.
April 2024
99 Cents Only Stores filed Chapter 11 after announcing liquidation.

at the time liquidation was announced.

Because the operating retailer has closed, the complaint process is no longer the same as it was when stores were active. The correct route depends on whether the issue concerns an old transaction, bankruptcy claim, property, legal matter, or another post-liquidation issue.
First identify whether the issue concerns a pre-liquidation purchase, gift card, merchandise credit, injury claim, landlord matter, vendor claim, employee claim, or another obligation. Ordinary store returns and gift-card redemptions ended during the 2024 liquidation, so many consumer matters can no longer be handled through conventional Customer Service.
For claims arising before or during the bankruptcy, review 99 Cents Only Stores LLC, Case No. 24-10721 (JKS) in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. The case remains the central reference for post-confirmation 99 Cents Only Stores matters.
Current court material identifies the post-confirmation debtor’s mailing address as 99 Cents Only Stores LLC, c/o META Advisors, LLC, 3 World Trade Center, 67th Floor, New York, NY 10007. Written correspondence should explain the claim or issue, identify any prior bankruptcy claim number, and include copies of supporting evidence.
For formal legal questions, court filings identify counsel for the debtor and the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. Do not use bankruptcy counsel as ordinary retail Customer Service. Claims should follow the procedures and deadlines established in the bankruptcy case.
If the issue concerns fraud, payment processing, an injury, employment, or another matter outside ordinary bankruptcy administration, the appropriate authority will depend on the facts. Possible routes include a card issuer, state labor agency, consumer-protection authority, court, or legal counsel. Because the chain is no longer operating, old store or headquarters numbers should not be relied upon as a complaint channel.
