Isetan previously opened at Orchard's Wisma Atria, a neighboring shopping mall to Isetan Scotts branch, but closed in March 2015, and converted for rental purposes. Currently the space, leased to Isetan, was filled with Mango, iora, Salon Vim, DRx Medical Aesthetic Clinic, YANN VEYRIE SALON, Franck Muller, Gautier Stylish French Living, Longines, World of Watches, UCHINO MYMY, SCANTEAK, and Sony.
On 6 May 2019, via The Straits Times, Isetan announced that the company will close its loss-making location at Westgate. It has had discussions with mall management on the lease renewal, but both parties did not reach an agreement. Therefore, the company has decided not to renew the lease. It was thus closed down on 8 March 2020.
On 29 February 2020, Japan Food Town, the cluster of Japanese restaurants on the fourth floor of what previously known as Isetan Wisma Atria was shuttered. Prior to closure, some tenants were already moved out. Isetan has already received offers from external parties interested to lease its space.
On 14 March 2020, Isetan and Central Pattana announced that its CentralWorld store will be closed per August 31, 2020 due to expiration of contract. The restaurant zone will be kept open despite Isetan's closure and the Kinokuniya Bookstores is still open as usual.
