High street discounter with 187 stores to close town centre branch in WEEKS A HIGH street retailer discounter with 187 stores will close down a town centre branch in a matter of weeks.
It's not the first time in recent weeks that The Original Factory Shop said it would close down one of its branches on the high street.
The data also showed over half the stores that closed last year were shut due to the store or retailer going through insolvency proceedings.
Plenty of other retailers are closing stores across the high street as households lean more towards online shopping and amid high business rates.
At the time, a spokesperson for the retailer said: "The Original Factory Shop has been offering communities a great range of products at unbeatable value since 1969.
