Waitrose has reported that it is planning to close six branches and has begun consulting with its Partners in Hertford, Staines, Leek, Huntingdon, Cardiff and Palmers Green (although the latter is likely to be replaced by a new store nearby) where 498 permanent roles will be affected.
Ben Stimson, Retail Director at Waitrose said, “We’d always try hard to avoid closing branches but we review how our shops are doing commercially and respond where we have to.”
“We’ll be consulting with our branch partners on these proposed closures and will make sure they have all the support they need.”
