Wilko has confirmed the locations of its stores which will close for good next week, including three in Warwickshire. Administrators said on Tuesday that 111 more stores will serve customers for a final time next week.
The firm will close 37 stores after trading on Sunday, September 24, a further 37 on Tuesday, September 26 and another 37 on Thursday, September 28. The high street chain, which entered administration last month, started its closure process last week.
All of Wilko’s 400 shops will close by early October, according to administrators from PwC. The chain's Nuneaton branch, which had been due to move from Church Street to the former home of Woolworths in Queens Road, will close on Tuesday, September 26. Speculation remains as to what is next for the old Woolworths.
Wilko's three remaining Warwickshire outlets - in Kenilworth, Leamington Spa and Rugby - will all close on Thursday, September 28, the administrator confirmed. The immediate future of Wilko's two Coventry stores - in Broadgate and Cannon Park Shopping Centre - remains unclear.
