We are having a debate in the office on how to say the following sentence correctly.  Would you please provide us with the correct way?

"The office will be closed for business tomorrow."

or

"The office will be closed from business tomorrow."

Looking forward to receiving a response soon.

Thank you,

Cecy

Hi,

#1 is the standard expression.

You might also like to consider 'The office will be closed to customers tomorrow'.
