MATALAN will pull the shutters on another megastore location tomorrow.
The move comes after the fashion retailer closed two other stores earlier this year.
Shoppers have just hours left to visit the Kendal branch before its closures on Tuesday, April 7.
The Matalan location follows the brand’s stores in Pendle and Carlisle, which shut last month.
Ahead of the previous closures, the homeware retailer confirmed plans to continue operating the Cumbria store up until its final day of business on April 7.
A Matalan spokesperson previously told Westmorland Gazette: “Our store at South Lakeland Retail Park will close in April.
“Our priority now is to support our colleagues. We are working closely with all those affected and, where possible, exploring alternative positions.
“We have thoroughly enjoyed serving customers at the retail park and hope they will continue to shop with us at our nearby Lancaster store.”
They added: “As part of the normal course of business, we occasionally close some stores, while exploring opportunities for openings in other locations.
“Customers can continue to shop our full range of products via our website and app, or in our 220 Matalan stores across the UK.”
The announced closure follows a string of other shut downs by the company.
Founded in 1985, the high street staple grew in popularity having 200 stores across the UK and an e-commerce platform.
Despite the recent closures of its three stores, the company is planning to significantly invest in the refurbishment of 40 stores.
The retailer already refurbished 30 of its locations last year as part of a £25million investment – which saw the renewed sites outperforming its older stores in sales.
