Boots\u00a0announced earlier this year that a total of 300 stores across the UK will be shutting down to\u00a0help “consolidate the business”.<\/p>\n
The health and beauty retailer’s\u00a0plan is to reduce its sites from 2,200 to 1,900 but will be offering\u00a0alternative roles to all employees affected by the closures.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Supermarket Iceland is also closing some branches after the summer due to changes in “local shopping patterns” and because certain “shop leases have expired”.<\/p>\n
Iceland’s executive chairman explained that this is a normal procedure and\u00a0\u201ca small\u00a0number of store closures happen\u00a0every year\u201d.<\/p>\n
The supermarket has 500 branches and 153 Food Warehouse sites across the country, and has recently opened new stores, including the new site in Kendal, Cumbria, Slough and Aberdeen.<\/p>\n

At the same time, we continually review the retail experience offered to our customers and have always made a small number of store closures every year, as local shopping patterns change and shop leases expire.<\/p>\n “The business is currently trading very strongly, achieving record market shares.
