Recently, Huzhou netizens posted a store closure notice on social platforms, saying that a Tims store opened in Aishan Square in Huzhou will be officially closed after its business closes on January 4, 2026.

It is reported that Tims Huzhou Aishan Plaza store will open on April 20, 2024. It is the first store after the brand settled in Huzhou. Local users recalled that news of the store's trial opening came out, and many people went to check in. During the trial opening period, some bagels and sandwich products were sold out, and the business was very good.

However, this coffee shop, which citizens had a good impression of it, posted a closure notice without warning, which really surprised users. Judging from the chat history posted by users, the reason why the store was closed should be that the lease expired. The brand customer service said that local citizens can still go to the Husheng Building store to experience and spend money after the store closes.

Interestingly, although the brand gave an explanation for the closure of the first store, local netizens still had their own opinions. Many people said that the Tims store suddenly closed. On the one hand, it may be because there are not many coffee consumers in Huzhou, and its product pricing gives people the impression that it is "too expensive and not cost-effective."

On the other hand, some people believe that compared with its peers, the operating capabilities of the Tims brand are slightly insufficient, and stores rarely launch joint partnerships, preferential activities, etc. that can attract the public to check in and spend, making it difficult for this low-key coffee chain to enter the hearts of passers-by. Many people admit that they didn't know that Tims was opened in Aishan Square until they saw the store closure notice.

In addition, some netizens also noticed messages on social platforms and found that many Tims stores have quietly closed in recent months, such as Wenzhou Shimao Yintai Store, Yinchuan Modern City Store, Yinchuan Yuecaicheng Store, Fuzhou Shangxiahang Store, etc. It is worth mentioning that some of these stores have issued notices in advance to remind old users like the first store in Huzhou, and some have quietly closed until customers find the location of the store. They are surprised to find that the doors are closed and there are no staff members in the store.

Public information on the Internet shows that in October 2024, Tims announced on official Weibo that its 1000th store would open in Huiyin Building, Jing 'an District, Shanghai, becoming one of the coffee brands with thousands of chain stores. However, as netizens said, after entering the "Thousand Store Era," Tims has been slightly insufficient in brand operation and promotion. It has rarely heard of its joint cooperation with popular IPs on social media. Compared with competitors such as Lucky, Tims has opened stores and expanded slowly.

Current narrow-door dining data shows that Tims has 898 stores, less than 1,000. Perhaps this number is different from the actual number of stores, but based on the closure of Tims stores in various places reported by netizens, fans who love its signature bagels and freshly brewed coffee inevitably have concerns about the future development of the brand and are worried about whether the few "remaining" Tims coffee shops around them will be empty one day in the future.
