Branches will begin closing their doors permanently from September 12
The first 24 branches will permanently close their doors on September 12, while the remaining 28 will close two days later. It means that 1,016 jobs have been put at risk while retailer B&M announced that it bought up 51 Wilko locations in a £13m deal.
It is understood that the Wilko locations being bought out will be rebranded. However, the future of the remaining 300 branches has been left uncertain for the time being.Edward Williams, joint administrator at PwC, said: “In the absence of viable offers for the whole business, very sadly store closures and redundancies of team members from those stores are now necessary.
The Wilko locations closing down are located all across the country, to help make it easier for you to find out if your local WIlko is included in this, we've created an easy-to-use interactive map.
