BOZEMAN — Appliance and electronics retailer Vann’s, which had six retail locations in Montana in early 2012, is down to one.

The Bozeman Vann’s store has closed, leaving only the Billings retail outlet. 

The company also has a website.

Vann’s closed its Helena store in February 2012 and six months later filed for bankruptcy protection. The remaining five stores were sold for $4.5 million to Texas-based McMagic Partners LP. 

The new owners closed the stores in Hamilton, Evergreen and Missoula last spring, citing lease disputes with the building owner Pete Vann, who founded the company in 1961.
