Sears has not agreed to #PayUp

6-6-20 – According to multiple media reports, Sears (run by billionaire CEO Edward Lampert) owes Bangladeshi suppliers at least $55 million for completed orders placed prior to the pandemic, including $21 million in finished goods already shipped and sitting in U.S. ports. Suppliers filed a lawsuit against Sears in June of 2020 for the unsettled dues. Sears has not filed for bankruptcy protection again during the pandemic and is not currently in bankruptcy proceedings.
