Prices slashed as BHS stores in Llandudno and Wrexham reveal closure dates

Full article by Owen Hughes, on Daily Post website.

The BHS store in Wrexham will close its doors for the final time next Wednesday with the Llandudno shop to shut three days later.

Last weekend administrators said that the giant chain would disappear from UK high streets by August 20.

Now they have revealed the final dates for Llandudno and Wrexham.

The Wrexham branch on Henblas Street will close on Wednesday August 3, while the store at Parc Llandudno will shut on Saturday August 6.

Sales have already seen prices reduced with further reductions now expected to clear stock in the coming days, with up to 70% slashed off some items.

BHS, which employs more than 100 staff at its stores in Llandudno and Wrexham, went into administration in April.

Attempts to find a buyer to take on the whole operation have failed leading to the store closures.

There is confidence a new occupier can be found for the Llandudno site with the town enjoying strong occupancy levels but there are major concerns about being able to fill the Wrexham unit.
