closed down
Ceased all operations
Closed down describes a business or operation that has permanently ceased activity.
A restaurant that closed down no longer serves customers; a factory that closed down has shut its doors for good.
The phrase emphasizes finality—not a temporary closure but an end: The mall closed down after anchor stores left.
To close down can also mean to shut something forcibly: Authorities closed down the illegal gambling operation.
