The discount shop has announced seven stores will close by the end of June.
The store is expected to run at a loss of $1 million to $2 million in 2019 and chief executive, Ross Sudano, will leave the company.
A spokesperson for the company said the details about which stores would close have not been released.
"This has been an extremely challenging period to be operating a retail business and the retail sector as a whole has felt the impacts of lower consumer confidence, flat wages, changing spending patterns and the rise in energy costs," Mr Sudano said in a press release on February 2019.
