Sears Holdings Corp. plans to close 62 more stores in the first half of 2012. 

In a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the retailer said it will shut 43 of its Hometown Stores, 10 of its hardware stores and all nine of its Great Indoors stores. 

There is more than 25 Hometown Stores in Ohio, including one in Greenville and one Great Indoors store in Farmers Branch. The company did not identify individual stores in the filing. 

The closings are in addition to as many as 120 poorly performing Sears and Kmart stores the retailer has already announced it would close. The Kmart store on Derr Road in Springfield is the only Dayton-area store to make this list.
