It’s a sad day for Collier Row today, after 99 years of Business Woolworths is closing, they may not have been in the Town Centre for all those years but to be honest, it seems like it. Despite last minute attempts by the administrators to sell part or all of the business, they have not managed to find a buyer.
Apart from the loss of jobs to local people (over 30 staff will be made redundant today) the impact of losing a major store in Collier Row could be devastating, after Tesco’s, Woolworths were the next biggest retailer in Town.
Collier Row Councillor, Andrew Mann said “I am very saddened about the loss of Woolworths in our town centre; it has been one of the biggest stores in Collier Row for many years, the staff have been fantastic working through difficult times, I do hope that they can all find new jobs locally.
