Poundland has confirmed it will be closing down more stores in February. The iconic British retailer is shutting down its Winton branch, in Dorset, as well as the Chichester and Feltham stores this weekend. The news comes after the retailer closed dozens of branches across the UK last year. Poundland’s managing director, Barry Williams, said that their focus on costs will give them a platform for future growth.
Darren MacDonald, Poundland’s UK country manager, said: “We know how disappointing it is when we leave a store, but before we close our doors for a final time, we’re determined to say goodbye by offering even more amazing value to customers. The special reductions, on top of the value we provide in every store, will help us leave locations we’re leaving with pride. And when we close our doors, we look forward to welcoming customers to one of the hundreds of Poundland stores we’ll continue to operate right across the UK.”
